I thought these were great tips. It made a huge difference – especially when I have Excel 2003. I do think Calibri looks better than Gill Sans MT but Gill Sans may indeed be easier to read.

love the down to earth approach in explaining things. so many Excel web sites presume one knows a lot re Excel not to mention that many users are not native English speakers. would love to see some articles on macros here.

I beg to differ on the last advice… but only partually.
I do a lot of stock market analysis in excel and I agree that ticking gridlikes off is a good idea. But now imagine you have a table say 50×10 it would be difficult to read the data… instead, try to use the borders but use dotted lines and light grey and do headers in bold with a bit bigger font and say dark blue background (white font though) and you’ll see the huge difference.
I had to present my stock market information to some brokers and they loved it.

I believe you meant “drivel” and not “dribble”. Critiques are more credible when written correctly :P

Those are the dumbest tips I have ever heard. Thanks for wasting my time with this dribble.
