Overview of the webinar

Although it is perfectly possible to use Excel without ever creating a formula or using a function if you don’t, you’re missing out on a huge part of the application’s power.

Without formulas and functions, Excel would not be able to perform its calculations.  So think of any scenario that involves addition, subtraction, division, or multiplication and that's where you'd use a formula.

Functions are built-in formulas that have been programmed to perform a specific calculation. They can often be used to shorten and simplify what would otherwise be a long-winded manually-entered formula.

Who should attend?
