This
course is for the expert user who
has good experience with Microsoft Excel or has completed the five
courses in our
Beginner Series plus Expert Level 1
and 2 classes. This course will teach you how to work with
logic functions in Excel.
We will
begin by learning about logical (boolean) values in Excel. You
will learn about TRUE and FALSE and the various core logic
functions, such as And, Or, and Not. You'll see how to determine whether
or not an invoice is paid, whether a customer should get a collection
letter, whether an order should be shipped, and whether a charge should
be added to a credit card batch. There will be a lot of examples in this
class, since understanding these functions is critical for making your
Excel spreadsheets smart.
Next, you will learn about one of the
most powerful functions in Excel: the IF function. Knowing how to
use IF properly will open up a whole new world for your spreadsheets.
You'll be able to make decisions with your data and provide different
results based on conditions. We'll learn how basic "If/Then"
reasoning works in Excel. You'll see, for example, how to charge
sales tax for a customer IF they reside in your state. You'll
see how you can take a student's average and give them a Pass or Fail
grade.
Next you'll learn how to nest multiple
IF functions together to select from multiple options. We will
assign a letter grade to each of our students (A-F). You'll learn
how to create time sheet calculations that cross over midnight
(difficult to do without IF). You will also learn how to calculate
regular and overtime pay for employees.
You will learn a bunch of different
functions to determine the contents of a cell. Is the cell blank?
Does it contain a number or text? Is there an error there? These
functions include IsBlank, IsError, IsText, IsEven, IsOdd, IsLogical,
IsNumber, IsText, IsNonText, IfError, and more. You can use the
IsBlank function, for example, to determine whether or not to use
"Mr.", "Mrs.", or "Mr. & Mrs." for a mailing list, depending on which
names you have (husband, wife, or both).
Again, this is the perfect class
for anyone who wants to learn how to work effectively with logic
functions including the IF function in Microsoft Excel 2010.
Mastering the IF function is one of the most important things you
can do while learning Excel. Of
course, if you have any questions about whether or not this class is
for you, please contact me.

Srinath Nandyal on 5/2/2011: While discussing whether to send a collection letter or not, you identiifed a row that contained proper arguments in cell D2 (FALSE) and C2(TRUE). It is likely that you can encounter where required arguments are NOT in the same row. If we end up selecting cells from different rows to satisfy the requirement. copying downward would distort the end result.
Reply from Richard Rost:
I suppose if your "records" span multiple rows, this is true. However, if you want to maintain your spreadsheets in a true database-like format, you should keep one record per row.
