I created this Excel Video Lesson in response to a viewer request. He wants to learn how to move files that contain dates, text and numbers from a different program into Excel. Excel 2007 gives you an easy to follow Wizard from the Data Tab of the Ribbon to Get External Data.
As I stress in this lesson – “Resist, resist, resist … the urge to go to the Office Button (File Menu) and choose Open. No, no , no… Use the Get External Data Wizard. Watch this short lesson to see how to bring information in from Word 2007 and from Access 2007. I also show you how to save an Excel 2007 file as a Text File (.txt) to make it easy to open it in almost any program.
