ABOUT THE
AUTHOR
Just a bit about me.
I am a Greek-Australian (my parents
are Greek and migrated to Australia
where I was born and lived most of my life)
and now for the last few years I have been
living in Spain where I am married to a
Spanish girl and have two beautiful
children, Mikel and Ànne! Here is a
recent pic of us over at the
MyExcelOnline HQs in Spain, Vitoria.
I left my corporate job at General Electric
in 2015 because I wanted to teach Excel to
the masses, as I saw first-hand that
there was a lack of Excel knowledge
in the professional environment.
I created an online Pivot Table course & an

online Power Query course and have never
looked back!
MyExcelOnline was born out of that and
I have since started an Excel blog where I
post tips four times per week on Formulas,
Pivot Tables, Charts & Analysis. I did not
stop there!
I created an Excel Podcast Show where
I interview fellow Excel experts and MVPs
to share their stories and Excel insights to
get the message out.
I also have a couple of free Excel webinars

so you can start learning Excel within the
hour with our Free Excel Webinars!
Now I have created this guide for you as
I know there is a real need for this and I
am sure that you will take lots of value
from it. Feel free to share it with your
colleagues  Keep on EXCELling!

ONLINE EXCEL
COURSES
Excel online courses are a quick way to learn
Excel without the hassle of googling online or
watching endless YouTube videos that don’t
give you the answer that you were after.
Online courses are structured, provide
teacher support, allow you to watch online or
download the HD videos and workbooks, as
well as receive a certificate of completion!
They are also very cheap compared to live
training seminars which can sum up to
thousands of dollars with the extra travel costs,
hotel, meals...and that doesn’t take into account
the stuffy conference rooms and distractions!
NB. Online course prices stated in this e-book are correct at

the time of printing but may change at any time...

This short course give you a great introduction into Power Query and goes through
its best features.
Power Query accesses, cleans and transforms messy data and displays it in a way
that Excel loves and can work with. So no more formulas, text to columns, trim
spaces, vlookup, find & replace etc.
Apart from cleaning data, Power Query can append or merge two separate tables
together (bye bye VLOOKUP!) as well as create extra columns in your data which
can display your custom calculations!
You can use Power Query to perform transformations that would be very complex in
VBA or SQL. So goodbye VBA coding!

can help automate the first two tasks listed above, the third (presenting data)
seems to be overlooked far too often.

PowerPoint every.

Add-In Name: The Waterfall Chart Creator

Purchase Link: www.myexcelonline.com/blog/waterfalladdin
Price: $25/$50
Description:
Waterfall charts are highly sought after in the corporate environment and they
show the differences between actual and budget numbers in a visual way. The
issue is that you would need to know advanced formulas to create a waterfall
chart but with this add-in you are spared the trouble.
These graphs do a tremendous job of quickly showing different variance buckets
between two data points (typically over a period of time - sometimes called
a “data walk”). The single thing that trips many analysts up is the complexity
surrounding the setup and formatting of these graphs.
Add-In features include:
Generate in seconds
Clean, Professional Format
Customize to fit your needs

Add-In Name: Unviewable +

Created By: Spreadsheet1.com
Purchase Link: www.myexcelonline.com/blog/unviewableaddin
Price: $94/$235/$565
Description:
Unviewable+ has an extremely simple interface and gets you protecting
your Excel, PowerPoint, or Word VBA projects fast!
First, you will want to make a backup copy (or two) of your file because once it
gets put through Unviewable+, that code is going to be out of your grasp.
So let’s take a look at how easy it is to protect your VBA projects.
Different Levels of Protection

Unviewable+ offers a few different levels of protection based on how compatible
you want your code to be and how difficult it would be for someone to hack into
your code. I would note that all methods of protection provided by this software
are viable options and only a seasoned hacker on a mission is going to be able to
bypass any of these protection strengths. Your average data analyst or IT person
is not going to have a clue how to get to your code.
The great thing about having so many protection options, is that you can start
with the highest protection strength (Ultimate) and if one of your users runs into
issues, you can lower the protection strength in a separate version until you can
provide a compatible file for that individual’s system.
Add-In Name: Password Recovery

Purchase Link: www.myexcelonline.com/blog/pwrecoveryaddin
Price: $45
Description:
Have you ever forgotten an Excel or VBA project password?

Did someone leave your company and can’t be reached to provide you with their
passwords?
These types of situations seem to happen all too often in our corporate and
personal lives and sometimes they can lead to DISASTERS! A Janrain study found
that nearly 2 in 5 people have to ask for assistance in remembering either a
username or password every single month.
Unique passwords take a lot of effort to keep track of and it’s easy to mix them up
when it seems every computer application requires some sort of log-in nowadays.
Imagine spending hours on an in-depth financial forecasting model and
losing the password to unlock its worksheets and make critical changes to the
formulas. Without that access, you may be left spending the next week (or even
month) trying to recreate your glorious model that was so good at pumping out
such accurate forecasts for your company.
Luckily, this Excel add-in can relieve your stress in seconds as your precious
spreadsheets are quickly and easily unlocked so you can re-gain access to all your
valuable data and formulas.
