Takes you to the next level with pivot tables April 17, 2007

Let's face it - even if you know what a pivot table is and how to create one, there are probably a lot of things that either bug you or you can't quite figure out. This book takes you to the next level. It's a must have for anyone who has to look at and summarize large volumes of data and be able to easily view that data in different ways without using a ton of formulas and formatting.
Only one 'flaw' worth mentioning April 6, 2007

This book is a really great reference and teaching tool for pivot tables. The only flaw is that sometimes it leaps from one view to another without saying how to get there. Other times a discussion uses a beginning view that is also unintuitive as to how to get there (how to get to the beginning point.) For me this is sort of OK since I am stubborn enough to keep poking around, trying different things until I am able to create the view, which actually helps me better learn the program. Also, there is a forum on their website on which other users or the author give answers or clues as to how the particular views in the book were derived. However, unless someone is stubborn or resourceful enough to do this type of investigation, I feel the reader would be left confused. For me, a somewhat minor flaw...for some it might be the end of the road in reading this book. Still, I think it is an excellent book and if one is serious about learning how to work with pivot tables, this is a great resource.

This was an excellent guide for using a pivot table. I've used them for years and a lot of it was too basis but there were a lot of good tips for making even intermediate users more efficient. I wish some more programs had as good a handy reference guide.
Very easy to follow January 18, 2007
