Create Better Spreadsheets
Organizing and working with large amounts of data can be a challenging task. In
previous versions of Excel, row and column capacity limits made it difficult to analyze
large amounts of data. Some of the most advanced tools and capabilities were contained
in menus and sub-menus, forcing users to find these commands on their own. Creating
and working with tables is one of the most fundamental reasons people use Excel, yet
using tables could be challenging. Beyond simply creating or formatting a table, there
was no way to refer to the table data intelligently. Building and formatting charts was
“click-intensive,” and even the most common tasks, like changing a chart’s title, could be

resources.
Office Excel 2007 addresses these challenges by helping you format business information

you are ready to print, the Office Excel 2007 Page Layout View helps to ensure better
printed results.
