Lab no. 8 - November 25th

At this lab we had to do an application (on a given table) posted on the professor's site: processing and analyzing a list of training course.

There were 9 requirements and in order to complete them I used comments text box, Date function, text functions (left, right, concatenate), subtotals, logical function (if), and other.

In our last laboratory we worked with subtotals, min, max, counting.
For the second assignment we had to do the following:

q1: the total sales for each county
q2: the minimum sales value for each type of product
q3: how many records for each type of product that was recorded on that list?
q4: the maximum sales value

Lab no. 5 - November 4th

I should have posted this on Thursday but I got a bit distracted.. so here is what Alexandra and I have worked in Excel.

At the last lab I've learned how to insert comments in Excel, format them and prepare the page for printing. Comments are useful for a bunch of things such as flagging errors, raising questions, making suggestions. By default, Excel displays comments in a yellow box that points to a single cell. You can modify almost everything: the line, the background of the box, the color of the text, etc. This is done by right clicking the comment box and selecting "Format" form the contextual menu.
