An introduction to Excel, including simple construction, charts, and tables.
Get the feel for Excel and Excel Tables with this introductory class. We will create simple spreadsheets and charts, and convert them into simple tables. We will briefly discuss pivot tables as well. This is a registered class, available to the first 8 people who sign up online or at the Adult Services Desk prior to the start of class. This class is not a series – each session is a repeat of the same curriculum (but feel free to attend more than one session, if you need to practice). If you have questions, please call the Adult Services Desk at 847-244-5150, then press 4.
