Entry 6. - Excel & Word exercises.


Microsoft Word:

Were there any problems?
After completing the exercise on Microsoft Word, i didn't find it complicated at all.
Each of the steps told me exactly what i needed to do.

Did you find it too simple or confusing?
I guess the exercise was fairly simple only because i frequently use Microsoft Word. The steps indicated exactly what needed to be done so there was no confusion in completing the task.

Can you see how this software might be useful to you?
After the completion of the exercise it is clear that Microsoft Word is one program that almost anyone could use as it provides many functions that arn't too confusing to get the hang of. It is one program that is very useful to me.


Microsoft Excel:

Were there any problems?
There weren't any extreme problems i had with this exercise, but when comparing it to the Microsoft Word exercise the steps are a little more detailed and take a little bit more time.

What were your solutions?
I just re-read many of the steps that i found a little bit confusing, and after taking the time to re-read them i figured out exactly what i needed to do.

Did you find it too simple or confusing?
Unlike Word, Excel is a little more involved. Unless you have used Excel regularly it might take a little time to figure out all its functions and how they work. The steps told you exactly what needed to be done, so i guess it was fairly simple.

Can you see how this software might be useful to you?
When you are needing record specific data there is no better program to use rather than Excel. Like Word, Excel is a good program for mathematical purposes. When needing to make specific graphs Excel would be very useful to me.
