I'm reasonably sure Jeff has the link, but Microsoft has some very good
online training -- visit http://office.microsoft.com and follow the Training
links from the first page you see. The last time I looked, those are all
basic courses -- don't extend, for example, to includ VBA code -- but useful
as a starter.

I agree with PCDatasheet's book recommendation and with Jeff's link to his
own site -- it is just full of information and links.

These 1000 (if at all a real figure..) is only the result of
-- 4 years abusing the newsgroups.
-- 4 years blatantly advertising and job hunting.

You only care about making money, and you act as if the groups are your private hunting ground.
So why would ANYBODY ever trust a person like you and hire you?

So if you know the answer and no-one else does (unlikely) you wouldn't give
it for free like the rest of us would?
