My OH taught himself Excel from a book! I'm not going to - I have no use for it.

I use a duvet Spreadsheets are like most things, great if you have a need for it but totally superfluous to everyday life. i think a database is more useful to the ordinary pc user. I know you can use excel for that too after a fashion but a dedicated database is so very useful for so many things.

I was taught the hard way, eldest said there you go mum, I'm off to Europe for 2 months, you either learn how to use it, or don't hear from me til I get back, needless to say it all came together

People on the forum have taught me everything I know.
