Charting in any application might be one of the most challenging tasks.

In this lesson you'll learn the one simple tip that takes all that confusion away. The light bulb will go off immediately and you'll be volunteering to put everything in a chart.

Here's a run down on what's gonna get you started on your way to becoming a charting expert:

• The two basic chart types and why you would use one over the other.
• The difference between the X and Y axis and why they are key to a good chart.
• The importance of the "row" and "column" settings (Pay attention to this; it's a key tip!).
• How to actually read and be able to explain any chart to your audience. (This is a great skill to master!)
• All kinds of formatting options so you can make the most professional-looking chart.
• The difference between "embedding" a chart vs. a "page" chart and why you might use one over the other.
• Some basic chart printing options.

As I upload more MS Excel lessons (There will be 6 all together), you'll learn about all the other really cool things you can do in this application, thus, making this one of the most powerful applications you can ever learn.  Don't get discouraged by having just one or two lessons under your belt at this point: Just knowing the stuff in these two lessons alone will put you miles ahead of any applicant that's never dared to even try to learn Excel. And that will look very impressive on your resume!
