  Hi Susan, 
  I can pass you on lesson 1 of the excel lessons as I also missed the first 
three, but was lucky to get a copy of them from Noreen Meagher.  Here is lesson 
1, and best wishes to yourself and Joe.

              
  Hi All, it has been on my mind for some time now to just go through the
  basics of excel with you all. Please let me know if you feel this is useful
  as I am not sure how many of you would even use excel but even if you don't
  it is good to know what  excel is and what it does.

  of a spread sheet:A spreadsheet is a sheet of paper that shows accounting or
  other data in rows and columns; a spreadsheet is also a computer application
  program that simulates a physical spreadsheet by capturing, displaying, and
  manipulating data arranged in rows and columns. The spreadsheet is one of
  the most popular uses of
  the personal computer.

  Okay now that we have some idea of what the spread sheet is, we can simply
  call excel a "spread sheet program".

  Most people will have the program "Excel" on their computers, if you have
  then go into the "start menu, programs" and arrow down till you find it.
  If you don't find it directly in the programs menu then you may find that
  arrowing down through the programs menu till you come to a "Microsoft
  Office" sub menu then right arrowing into it and down arrowing will locate
  it for you. When you come to it, just press the "enter key".

  When excel opens up you will be presented with lots and lots of rectangular
  shapes called cells. These cells are  both numbered and alphabetized.
  Numbers run down the left hand side of the excel page, while letters run
  across the top of the page.

  For example you have the first cell on a spread sheet designated "cell A1"
  the cell to the right of this cell is called "Cell B2" and the cell directly
  beneath cell A1 is "Cell A2"

  Now you can try out this for yourselves and just get a feel for the page you
  are working in. As we go along, I will try and explain  useful shortcut keys
  which you can use within the Excel program both jaws specific keys and
  excel specific keys. They will all combine to help you use it more
  effectively.
  I will wherever necessary try and  also include  those using magnification
  if I feel it is necessary.

    I have all the excel lessons except lesson 1, this is probably because I 
only joined the list at the time the excel lessons were put on to the list. so 
would it be possible to send me lesson 1?

    many thanks 

    Susan
