The top ten techniques will all be shown at least twice: first, on a PowerPoint slide with numbered steps, and second, in the subscription-based Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365) version of Excel. Differences in the older versions of Excel (2021, 2019, 2016, and earlier) will be discussed during the presentation, as well as detailed handouts. You will also receive an Excel workbook that includes most of the examples used during the webcast.
Microsoft 365 is a subscription-based product that provides new feature updates as often as monthly. Conversely, the perpetual licensed versions of Excel have feature sets that don’t change. Perpetual licensed versions have year numbers, such as Excel 2021, Excel 2019, and so on.
