In this presentation, author and Excel expert David H. Ringstrom, CPA will take you on a journey to master the Excel features that transform the way you handle data, enabling you to expedite tasks and analyze information more effectively.

You'll learn the intricacies of PivotTables, from identifying ideal data sets to refreshing and optimizing your PivotTables with recommended layouts. David will demonstrate the power of sorting—whether by color, custom lists, or other criteria—and how to enhance data analysis through Excel's advanced sorting features. He will guide you through the nuances of filtering data, adding ad hoc totals, and employing slicers to create dynamic Excel tables.

Get ready to dive into the sophisticated world of dynamic array functions in Microsoft 365 and Excel 2021's, including FILTER, SORT, and UNIQUE, and explore how these can revolutionize your data workflows. Dynamic array functions improve data integrity of spreadsheets and reduce maintenance. David will show you how to follow along with this part of the presentation in Excel for the Web if you're using Excel 2019 or earlier. This session will also cover conditional formatting tricks, the art of removing duplicates, and leveraging structured references with the SUMIF function.

Finally, enhance your problem-solving arsenal with an introduction to Excel's Goal Seek and Solver add-ins, and learn how to streamline text manipulation with the Flash Fill tool.

Whether you're a seasoned professional or new to Excel, this webinar is designed to equip you with the skills to navigate and manipulate data with unprecedented ease and confidence.
