Default HOW DO I REMEMBER ALL THE TERMINOLOGY?

I have been doing basic excel for about 6 months. In my job I am required to
learn more and I have been doing some of the online training. One thing that
I am having problems with is not remembering some of the terminology. I use
excel for special project monthly and not on a consistant basis. Does anyone
have a list of the terms or a glossary they can share?

Generally, Google is the best source for information on Excel terms. Lots of
links to informative web sites.

Default HOW DO I REMEMBER ALL THE TERMINOLOGY?

Excel has many features and terminology can be a very large subject.

Without knowing what functions of Excel you use and what your regular tasks are
it would be difficult to give you a "glossary of terminology"

Excel Help is probably your best bet.

As far as remembering, start keeping a worksheet with examples related to the
type of work you do with Excel.

Add to it as you run into new terms and functions.

Also might be an idea to have a browse through these sites............

Some tutorial sites for basics of Excel........

Try these:
In Excel you can use the Excel help to get "Examples of commonly used
formulas". Simply search for list of formulas.
