Excel Twitter 20101105
Plenty of spreadsheets have put me in a bad mood, but I don’t get The Economist, so had to Google to see why this week’s cover was so upsetting. To save you the trouble of hunting for it, here’s what the cover looks like.
- I’ve been at work for 1.5h and all I’ve done is read the papers and type the heading of my spreadsheet
- Nothing makes you talk to yourself like a good spreadsheet. Shame I work in an open plan office.
- I get so terribly excited when complicated spreadsheet formulae work the way I wanted them to
- Had a stroke of genius and emailed myself at my work address with an Excel formula. #iamanerd
- And Excel continues to thwart my efforts to be green by not applying the same print settings to each sheet in my workbook.
- Guessing how to make charts in Excel 2010 by selecting numbers and pressing ALL the buttons. Something’ll look right soon..
- Rather than showing, very generically, that a value is going up or down, the 3D line chart in Excel 2007 is useless. Looks cool, though.
- Joe Espisito: It’s too easy to trick people into thinking a complex #excel spreadsheet equates to thorough planning #chsconf10
- Excel is a program for smart people, and it makes me feel stupid.
- After explaining it three times. The lady still didn’t understand why she couldn’t open .PDF files in Excel…how did she just get hired?
- I legitimately watched a woman stare at a blank Excel spreadsheet for an hour tonight on the plane. She didn’t make a move just stared.
- Best line of this conference so far: "If you love Excel, if you have fun with it, these formulas are very simple." pffft… What?!
- Today is the day I will find the break in my spreadsheet. Positive thoughts. Today I will rekindle my love for excel.
- Bug in #Excel 2010?When you color a cell after the 10.000 row the Filter By Color choice is inactive! if you color one below,then all is OK!
- I need to work on that comic again, or at least draw out the rest of the shops. They’re all planned out in an Excel spreadsheet
- Oh yeah.. one lil miscalculation.. then your ENTIRE EXCEL SPREADSHEET is WRONG! One tiny wrong = LOADSA WRONGS! lol
- This spreadsheet has me in a bad mood. That and the front cover of the Economist.
