Wow, thanks! It was actually
Wow, thanks! It was actually pretty hard to find even the most basic Excel tutorial like what this simple 2 minute movie covers. I need tutorials that act as if I've never seen Excel before because I've never used it before! I'm excited to go through all your videos to see what I can learn without a classroom. Thanks for making these!
