How to Embed an Interactive Excel Workbook from a Sky Drive in Windows Office Live!

For the past two or three months, I have been uploading the Excel Workbooks that I use during my video tutorials to my Sky Drive at Windows Office Live! – www.office.live.com Just this past week, I learned that I can also “embed” those stored files here – in a blog post – on my website! So, here is my first attempt to share an “interactive Excel Workbook” with you.

Embedded Excel Workbook

This Excel worksheet is one of the basic data sets that I use when I demonstrate how to create Excel Pivot Tables. Scroll horizontally or vertically to see the Pivot Table. Notice that you can use the drop-down filters in the Pivot Table!

Click the Icon in the lower right corner of the Excel WebApps frame and you will be taken to my Sky Drive online where you can view or manipulate the worksheet in Full Screen More. Or, you can choose to download this file to your computer to work on it with the full range of Excel commands.

How to Use the VLOOKUP Function in Excel

The VLOOKUP Function is one of the essential Excel functions that you need to understand in order to work with data tables, invoices and product listings. In response to numerous email requests, I created this video lesson to walk you through each step.

I share my best practices which include:

  • Use a “named cell range” for your “array.” The “array” is the table that contains the information that you are looking up.
  • Make sure that the “Leftmost” column in your array is sorted in ascending order and that this column contains the values that you are looking for.
  • Use “FALSE” as the optional fourth argument when you need to find an “exact” match in the Leftmost Column.

How to Publish an Excel Workbook as a Webpage

How good is your information – if you or your colleagues can not access it when you need it?

Not good enough!

I love USB Flash Drives for their portability. But, when I need – or I need to send an Excel Workbook – halfway around the world …? I need a better way to access that information.

I need to learn how to publish my Excel workbook as Web page – complete with Interactivity. Watch this short video lesson as I demonstrate how to:

  1. Save an Excel Workbook as a Web-page – be sure to enable Interactivity.
  2. Add, edit and delete data in the workbook while on-line.
  3. Send the Webpage version of the workbook back to Excel – to communicate my changes or to further analyze the data.

Do You Want Copies of My Excel Workbooks?

I have a question for you?

I just added an “interactive copy” of my Excel Workbook for my video lesson – “Rearrange Your Columns – Sort from Left to Right”

Here is the link to the workbook.

My question is: Should I go back and add links to the Excel Workbooks for earlier lessons? To make it easy for you to respond, I have included a quick poll to the right sidebar on this page (at the bottom of the sidebar).

Thanks in advance for your response!

Danny
