I know! I'm trying to get a lab done for Stat because I don't feel like sitting through 50 minutes of Excel tomorrow when I already took an MS course last semester, but this thraed and it's ever expanding rate is making it hard!
I can't believe there are college courses in Excel. (not meant offensively)

If you REALLY want to learn what excel can do...learn VBA.

I work magic with Excel. :P

Well, (and no offense to anyone here!) but he is getting older. Sometimes they lose it as they get older. Dick Van I don't think was as energetic and funny in his older years either.

Yeah, both Tim and Dick have had their drinking issues. Tim is 60, not exactly retirement home age yet.

Sadly the whole MS course is needed. I worked with Seniors on a group project and I was showing them how to do formatting on PowerPoint. It was sad. I think I probably could have done the entire course in a week instead of a semester. Excel is the one program I really didn't use in high school, so it was helpful, but I didn't need four weeks of Excel. Thankfully that course was online; I did it while watching TV. And got 100% in it.:rolleyes:

I'm taking an advanced MS course this semester, so maybe I'll learn some "magic." ;) I just don't feel like sitting through 50 minutes of Excel tomorrow when I can do it myself in half that time and not have to wait for people to catch up.

Honestly, I doubt you will learn any "magic"...especially if they follow the MOC (Microsoft Official Curriculum). You'll learn about the advanced features of 2012 (such as the filtering features, etc...), but the real juice is VBA, which runs it all.

PM me if you are interested and I will expound, as this discussion isn't Sagalicious. But, VBA is VERY powerful, and if you can pick up even the basics, it's worth a hell of a lot of money.

I've made tons of money off what are (to me) simple scripts that replace entire departments.

That's all I'll say about it now.

Hey. Done catching up, and don't want to go back and quote a post, so let me just leave this here: According to the Mental Floss magazine (which is a very trustable resource in my opinion), duct tape WAS originally called "duck tape". (I don't actually know why they called it that, so I will try to find the magazine.) After WWII, people started using it on ducts, so that new name was adopted.

So my point? Both "duct tape" and "duck tape" are correct.

I'll keep it in mind. I'm too tired to process anything complicated right now, but maybe later. :)
