Welcome to Excel 2010 level 2! I am so happy you are attending this class. I know you will find it interesting, educational, and hopefully very enjoyable. Check back often at this website for any information or links that I may refer to in class. If I have any handouts, you will find them mentioned here or may be in the list in the Excel folder on the right. The book for this class has the ISBN number of 978-0-76384-315-1 and I encourage you to check for used ones on http://www.Amazon.com . There is a Level 1 and Level 2 book, ISBN 9780763843106. It might be cheaper. I look forward to our time together. Thank you for coming!
