Communicating Information: Using Excel 2003
Communicating numerical information can be done in two ways. First, and most important, is gathering the correct data and organizing it into a useful form via a spreadsheet. The second way to present numerical information is graphically via a chart. Using Excel 2003 effectively won't help you gather the correct data, but it will help you organize data and manipulate it in useful ways. Excel 2003 will also allow you to present your data in effective visual charts or graphs, so your audience can clearly see what your data says.
This Excel 2003 tutorial provides you with the basics for effectively presenting and organizing numbers (and categories of information), so that the structure of what you have gathered is clear. Creating a worksheet helps you organize your data; creating a graph or chart helps you present the data visually using the Chart Wizard.
This tutorial just hits the highlights. For more information, check out a list of Books on Microsoft Office 2003 and the Microsoft Office Tutorial on Excel 2003. (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/CH790018021033.aspx )
