Just started an excel course online and instructor is using Boost. Would you guys recommend me installing as well or stick with excel default?

Good point! Thanks! I’m stick with learning the shortcuts and go from there.

If you can talk the company into paying for it, look for Excel University, with Jeff Lenning. There are several courses that are really good, but the four-part course is great. I wasn’t sure I’d learn much when I first found it, but it looked interesting. Gives you lots of hours for a fairly reasonable cost and I actually learned quite a bit.

What is the course called? Is it helpful?

Wall Street prep. I think it covers the basics. Being a noob, I would say very. But I wouldn’t be surprised if it was deemed too easy for most people with prior excel training.

I would appreciate any advice on how to stay on top of non urgent tasks. As a 2nd year, I’m often tapped to handle tedious tasks that need to get done quickly. Tbh, I like urgent matters.

I definitely rely heavily (maybe over rely?) on the paralegals for these sort of things. Any tips?

Hi team i have a bit of doubt.
I have an excel sheet where column A is the order numbers. I want to add comments in column G.
There are many repetitions in order numbers but they are all sorted in ascending so all the repetitions are below one another.

If i have a comment, how can i automatically paste that same comment in all the repetitions of that order numbers if i write it in the 1st instance.

Thanks in advance
