Pivot Table Data Crunching [EPUB ebook] 
Microsoft Excel 2010

Pivot Tables may be Excel’s most powerful feature, but Microsoft has estimated that only 15% of Excel users take advantage of them. That’s because Pivot Tables (and their companion feature, Pivot Charts) have a reputation for being difficult to learn. Not any more! In this book, Excel legends Bill Jelen ("Mr Excel") and Michael Alexander teach Pivot Tables and Pivot Charts step-by-step, using realistic business scenarios that any Excel user can intuitively understand. Jelen and Alexander go far beyond merely explaining Pivot Tables and Pivot Charts: they present practical "recipes" for solving a wide range of business problems. Drawing on more than 30 combined years of Excel experience, they provide tips and tricks you won’t find anywhere else, and show exactly how to sidestep common mistakes.
