Book Recommendation
Ok…this is different. Usually our posts are about computer related issues but todays post is going to be a tad bit different but still dealing with technology.
I recently purchased Microsoft Excel 2002: 10 Minute Guide. Basically I was looking for something that would be very helpful and quick at the same time. I found both features in this book.
This 10 Minute Guide to Excel offers simple but practical help for busy people who need results fast.
10 MINUTES IS ALL YOU NEED TO LEARN HOW TO
- Build Excel worksheets from scratch
- Perform calculations using formulas and functions
- Format numbers and text to look great
- Insert new rows and columns in a flash
- Print worksheets so they are easy to read
- Create charts to display your data in a graphical format

Class Registration
We are currently out of computer brochures for the January-June schedule. We are expecting our new brochures, which will cover the months of July-November, in a week or two. In the meantime you can look at The Reader to see a listing of classes being offered after the month of June. As always, if you need to register for classes please give us a call at 205-226-3799 or 205-226-3798.
It’s Not Too Late…
…to register for computer classes. Although pre-registration is required we will not turn anyone away at the door if you haven’t pre-registered. If the class is already full when you call to pre-register we will tell you to come on the day of the class as a “walk-in”. This simply means that if other class participants don’t show up that morning you, as a walk-in, can simply take their place. We have never had to turn anyone away because of lack of space!
The next classes will be offered on Saturday, May 19th. We have two classes that day. The first one is Microsoft Excel. As it stands at the moment, that class is full but you are welcome to come as a walk-in. The second class is Creating Your Resume/Job Hunting on the Web. This class is not full so feel free to call 205-226-3798 or 205-226-3799 to register. We look forward to seeing you in the near future.
