Using Microsoft EXCEL 4.0 for Windows

Assuming no prerequisites, the authors adopt a beginner's approach in this text, so students should be able to learn necessary skills and concepts. Lesson one introduces the IBM PC and lessons two and three introduce the Windows operating system. The lessons cover both keystroke and mouse-click options and end with a summary of commands and concepts, review questions, and hands-on exercises. The business orientation ensures students learn Excel 4.0 by developing spreadsheets used in business, including budgets, cash flow, balance sheets, income statements, cost of goods sold, inventory, and loan payments. This text has been designed for short courses and as a laboratory tutorial in an introduction to computing course. An accompanying "Instructor's Manual" (ISBN 0-07-050300-1) is also available.
