Fortunately, the quality of internet connection is getting better today, so learning on Skype (or Teams) is just as effective as if I were sitting right next to you in person.

• You are the only person in the course and we can keep your pace and rhythm.
• There are even some additional benefits:
• You can be anywhere in the country/ world, there is no geographical limit to your learning.
• You can sit in your armchair at home or be in your office – it does not matter.
• You are using your own computer.
• There is no time wasted on travelling.
• Skype can record the lesson, so you can look it back later.

Undo or Redo an action in Excel

To undo an action press Ctrl+Z. You can remember it from the German word: Zurück.

Fortunately, this shortcut is universal, so you can use it in other programs as well. For example, Word, internet or Gmail.

I beleive in shortcuts, but if you prefer your mouse, click Undo on the Quick Access Toolbar. I keep the Quick Access Toolbar for other icons.

Did you know that F4 repeats the last command if it is possible? If you are coloring, F4 repeats the last color or formatting.

For example, I use it when I look at a larger lists and highlight the problematic data in yellow. This is much easier to press the F4 button than to always click on the “bucket”.

“I feel like my company is doing well.”
“I don’t record my costs because I can keep track of it in my head.”
“During the holidays I surely gained 3 kilos.”

You may know … 

I believe in facts!

If you just click with the mouse once per minute, that’s 480 times are a business day! If you click every second, it’s 28,800 clicks a day.

We – who works 8 hours a day with computer – are somewhere on this scale.

Mostly we click because we want to see the mouse at a given point and it’s easier to point out. (Surprisingly, this is the reason why the mouse was developed). “1. Let’s start the click-killing! Use the navigation arrows!” bővebben

Excel time management often causes a despair: instead of a date, a number is displayed, e.g. 41615. It depends on the cellformat.

Excel stores dates as a serial number. By default, January 1, 1900 is equivalent to number 1, and for example, 1st January 2013 is 41275, or 22th September 2017 is 43000, and 18th July 2020 will be 44000! “3 secrets about Excel time management” bővebben
