Excel 2010 is Now Available!
We are excited to announce that LearnKey’s Excel 2010 course is now available! Excel 2010 has some great new features as well some exciting new improvements that most definitely enhance the program!
The best upgrade to Excel 2010 is the improvement Microsoft made to the performance capability by doubling the file size limit to 4GB improving sped and performance.

The slicer allows you to easily analyze data in the spreadsheet. You can also use it to create dashboards for professional, easy to read reports.
Sparklines is a new feature that allows you to create single cell charts that are helpful when you are studying trends.
