Description : |
In this presentation, author and Excel expert David H. Ringstrom, CPA, will delve into a comprehensive exploration of Microsoft Excel's powerful text manipulation tools and functions. He'll cover a wide range of topics, from mastering the LEFT/MID/RIGHT functions for precise text extraction to transforming text case with the UPPER/LOWER/PROPER functions. Discover the time-saving capabilities of the new TEXTBEFORE/TEXTAFTER and TEXTSPLIT functions in Microsoft 365. Learn how to efficiently use unwanted characters by using the CLEAN and TRIM functions. Dive into the intricacies of the Text to Columns Feature, where you'll uncover techniques for handling addresses, dates, and names with ease. Additionally, explore advanced features like combining text with the CONCAT function and having Excel read text aloud to you by way of the Text to Speech Command. David is the author of “Microsoft Excel 365 for Dummies”, “Exploring Microsoft Excel’s Hidden Treasures”, and has written or co-authored six other books. He demonstrates every technique at least twice: first, on a PowerPoint slide with numbered steps, and second, in the subscription-based Excel for Microsoft 365. David draws your attention to any differences in Excel 2021, 2019 or 2016 during the presentation and in his detailed handouts. The handouts include an Excel workbook with most of the examples he uses during his demonstrations. Excel for Microsoft 365 is a subscription-based product that receives periodic feature updates. Conversely, perpetually licensed versions have year numbers in their names and do not receive any feature updates. |
