Excel Twitters 20090424

Peach colour Excel forms? I’ve never made one of those, and I’ll assume that you haven’t either. But I have sent screen shots in an Excel file. Is that so wrong? And now that Oprah is on Twitter, maybe she’ll post some pivot table questions.

Off the Charts

  • Dear Microsoft, I don’t like the charts bit in Excel 2007. When you do the next upgrade, please bring back the wizard.
  • funnily enough I just did some kick ass excel-ling! I made a frikin’ outrageous graph! outrageous! lots of formating! OMG!
  • Taking forever to make the simplest graph in Excel. I keep getting sidetracked by more interesting websites.

Brilliant Formulas

  • just gave up a really brilliant one-step Excel formula to do a separate calculation on a part of the result; so I had to break that part out
  • ah spending an hour helping friend with his excel and turns out all we had to do was subtract by 3 in the vlookup formula
  • why, why is my GD formula not working – DAMN YOU EXCEL… then the printer jammed. Sob.

Excel in Government

  • Spending my 18 years of experience in education tabulating excel lists for state and federal testing. Your tax dollars at work.
  • Idea for new UK Legislation #1: Anyone incapable of basic Excel formatting tasks should be certified ‘Unemployable’.

For Your Consideration

  • All of you Excel gurus love that peach color for your forms. Is it part of some training?
  • Excel: the musical. Well it’s more relevant these days than workhouses.Excel Glorious Excel,cells, macros and numbers
  • you can soon expect MS products (like word and excel) to have social functionality

Pivot Power

  • having serious issues with a pivot table. it won’t obey me.
  • doing an advance Pivot table refresher course, why of why did i sign up!
  • I’ll have a great example of the power of Twitter if I can get my Pivot Table question answered!

Who Are We?

  • ahh, corporate beurocracy at its best – imagine the pain I feel every time I see a screenshot emailed in an excel sheet….!
  • i’ve seen more pain and business impact by a shared Excel spreadsheet than some “proper” apps/services could ever cause!!!
  • “We are unable to force Microsoft Excel to quit at this time. Restarting your computer might solve the problem.” Who are ‘we’?

Whatever You Want

  • I successfully set up the hotel on a makeshift, excel-based reservation logging system to cover the next few days just in case!
  • Doing reporting in excel makes me wonder why we spent a fortune on SQL server enterpirse with reporting services.
  • My home-made MS Excel premiership football match predictor said that Liverpool v Arsenal would be 3-3. I thought it was mad.
  • just reminding myself that there’s no real truth in digital worlds : Excel can say whatever you want it to say + pictures can be Photoshoped
