Is there definitive advice on Excel best practice?

About what? Narrow your question somewhat. What feature or procedure are

Best thing I've seen on this yet is written by John F Raffensperger:

it's about spreadsheet design in general.

And Charles Williams' site has great tips on setting up for maximizing
calculations speeds.

Being an expert user (not a programmer or developer note!!) I am trying o put
together some advice for users of excel, many of whom have terrible habits,
mostly on the formatting side, eg putting a heading in two cells rather than
in one and wrapping it, snd having blank rows and columns.

okay well my first item on the list would be "don't merge cells" ... causes
problems when you try filtering & sorting etc

You can look at the book: "Excel Best Practices for Business" (ISBN:
