Course Details

Course Duration - 2 hours

Course Objectives

You might want to consider this mini course if:

You find you are entering the same data in more than one place.

You want to change several sheets adding the same information to each - maybe a new row with a certain piece of information on it.

You would like to have a totals sheet that summarises the other sheets. 

You might also work with multiple workbooks and would like to share information between these files.

Our course content will help you achieve these goals.
