Microsoft Excel 2010 In Depth

Acknowledgments

Excel 2007 and Excel 2010 brought tremendous new gains to spreadsheets. David Gainer at Microsoft led the Excel team through these two amazing versions. Thanks to all the Excel Project Managers who were happy to take the time to discuss the how or why behind a feature. The PowerPivot team of Donald Farmer, Rob Collie, and Amir Netz were tremendously helpful in getting me up to speed with PowerPivot.

Thanks to Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston for inventing the computer spreadsheet. Thanks to Mitch Kapor for Lotus 1-2-3. Like everyone else who uses computers to make a living, I owe a debt of gratitude to these three pioneers.

I’ve learned that when writing a 1,000-page book, there is not much time for anything else. Thanks to Tracy ...
