Of course, you can use the built-in tabs navigation buttons, and go the next, previous, first, or last sheet, but there is also a way to see all the sheets and be able to click on the one you want to work on. Simply right-click the tabs navigation buttons at the bottom left of your worksheet, and a floating list of all the worksheets in the workbook will appear. This is especially useful when sheet names are long. This is a great way to navigate quickly around complex spreadsheets. There are also two great keyboard shortcuts to use when working with multiple worksheets: CTRL+PageUp activates the previous sheet in your workbook, while CTRL+PageDown activates the next one.Industry NewsLinkedIn factsRecently a colleague asked me why he should join LinkedIn. What were the benefits for him? So I did some research, and have come up with some answers.- LinkedIn has more than 65 million members in over 200 countries - A new member joins LinkedIn approximately every second - More than half of LinkedIn members are outside the US - Executives from all Fortune 500 countries are LinkedIn members - Through LinkedIn you can manage the information that's publicly available about you as a professional - because when you join you create your own business profile, which summarizes your professional expertise and accomplishments - You can find and be introduced to potential clients, service providers and subject experts who come recommended- You can post and distribute job listings to find talent for your company To see the YouTube video for an overview of LinkedIn, click here <http://www.vision6.com.au/ch/10123/2ddtczv/1217372/0a431wd6d.html> .

Our CTO trainer was a wealth of knowledge. Carol Rawson, Williams Partners, Gold Coast, Qld - Adobe InDesign trainingThe Powerpoint training was great. The most valuable thing I learned was that I can now find most things I need - just as if I was working on Excel or Word. It's all there! Kelly Robinson-Hicks, M&C Saatchi, Sydney, NSW - PowerPoint for Mac training Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit. Aristotle We value our relationship with you, and would like to keep you informed on a regular basis.
