[quote=Anonymous]I found the best way to sharpen my skills was to need them for the specific job I was doing. There are TONS of quick tutorials for every Excel function. I don't use, for example, INDEX-MATCH functions on a daily basis, but whenever I need to, I can look them up. You need to practice. You also need to make sure every single thing you do passes the sniff test. Check your pivot table against your data to make sure it makes sense. If it seems off, run it again in on a new sheet and futz with the parameters until it seems right. Build in checks and balances -- if your table tells you there are 25 instances of value X, then go run a "find" search on the data and see if it returns 25.[/quote]
