Title: Helpful when studying for certification
Review: I used Skillsoft to prepare for and pass all of the other exams required for Master certification with the exception of Excel, I failed the test! When I failed I got this book and it was VERY helpful it answered a lot of questions and was easy to follow. It really is good for all level of users. However I did fail the Excel Expert exam again after studying this book. It doesn't go into enough detail about XML or about the analysis toolpack so if you are studying this to pass at the expert level, you will need another book. But for use in the office, I think this is an excellent book that I plan to keep and use as a reference. After studying a third book that my testing center let me borrow, I finally passed the Excel Expert Exam and am now Master certified. However, Linda's book was definitley helpful in getting me to that point.
Is the review positive or negative?
