One little trick that I like to do with Macromedia Flash is to add an invisible button over a photo or diagram. This button can help identify people in a photo, point out areas of interest on a map, quiz someone on a diagram (i.e. the heart), or just do silly things. :)
This is my first in a series of tutorials for Microsoft Excel. This will introduce some of the basic concepts and then demonstrate a couple practical uses.
In this tutorial I discuss some tricks for speeding up your work, adding extra function to Word, and I through in some tips most people don't know about.
One of my favorite things to do is to take pictures with my digital camera and turn them into 3D images -- the kind where you use red and blue 3D glasses to see them. It's surprisingly easy and really fun.
Creating charts and diagrams may not be the first thing you think of when you use Excel, but I use it all the time. In this example I use Excel to create a seating chart for my computer lab.
I use Excel as something of a simple database. I use it to keep track of movies, collectibles, etc. because I like the interface, the ease of organizing data, and the ability to filter data on-the-fly with AutoFilters and Sorts.
I will go over fixing some of the "features" that come with Excel, customizing menus, protecting worksheets, creating forms, and adding some "special effects".
By Request: Formulas, Formatting, Auto-Formatting, Dates, etc. This was a request to go back to the basics and do some "Beginning Excel" video tutorials. I hope this helps!
The Forest is another quick and easy landscape using a "mountain" to create a simple model -- in this case, a forest full of trees. Experiment with different textures (trunk, terrain, etc.) to get different kinds of trees.
I continue with part 2 of the "back to basics" Excel tutorial. I go into more depth with formulas, talk about changing column and row sizes, and reference other cells.
