Overview of the webinar
Excel's dynamic arrays revolutionize how users handle and analyze data by allowing formulas to return multiple results that automatically spill into adjacent cells. Introduced with Excel 365, dynamic arrays simplify complex data tasks, making spreadsheets more flexible and powerful.
Dynamic arrays operate with new functions designed to leverage this capability. For example, the SEQUENCE function generates a list of sequential numbers in a specified range, while the SORT function sorts data dynamically. The UNIQUE function extracts unique values from a range, and the FILTER function allows for filtering data based on specific criteria. These functions significantly reduce the need for manual data manipulation, improving efficiency and accuracy.
One of the key features of dynamic arrays is their ability to handle changing data sizes automatically. When a formula using dynamic arrays is entered, Excel automatically creates the necessary range of cells to accommodate the results. If the source data changes, the output range adjusts dynamically, eliminating the need to manually update formulas or cell references.
Dynamic arrays also enhance the capability of existing functions. For instance, traditional functions like INDEX and MATCH can now be combined with dynamic arrays to create more complex and responsive formulas. This increases the power and versatility of Excel, allowing users to perform sophisticated data analysis with greater ease.
Overall, dynamic arrays streamline data tasks, reduce errors, and enhance productivity. They are particularly useful for users dealing with large datasets or requiring advanced data manipulation and analysis. Mastering dynamic arrays equips Excel users with the tools to create more dynamic, efficient, and accurate spreadsheets, making it an essential skill for modern data management.
Who should attend?
Anyone who uses Excel needs to be able to make their work more efficient. So, this course is for
- All Excel Users!
Why should you attend?
Attending an Excel session to learn about dynamic arrays is highly beneficial for anyone looking to enhance their data analysis and manipulation skills. Dynamic arrays simplify complex data tasks by allowing formulas to automatically expand to neighboring cells, eliminating the need for manual adjustments. This feature streamlines tasks like filtering, sorting, and performing complex calculations, making your workflow more efficient and reducing errors. By mastering dynamic arrays, users can handle large datasets with greater ease and flexibility, creating more dynamic and responsive spreadsheets. These skills are crucial for professionals who need to perform advanced data analysis, providing them with powerful tools to extract meaningful insights and improve decision-making processes.
Faculty - Mr.Bob Umlas
Bob Umlas worked for a major tax and accounting firm, using Microsoft Excel® 8 hours a day, writing custom applications for staff and clients from 1998 to 2018.
He has been using Excel since 1986 - version 0.99 (on the Macintosh)! He was a contributing editor to Inside Microsoft Excel for many years, a magazine devoted exclusively to Microsoft Excel and published by The Cobb Group and later Ziff-Davis. At the time, most issues contain either an article by Mr. Umlas on using VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) or some tip or technique from him on using Excel. He has had more than 300 articles published on subjects ranging from beginner to advanced macros, and on tips, shortcuts, and general techniques using virtually all aspects of Excel.
Mr. Umlas was voted an “MVP” (Most Valuable Professional) by Microsoft each year from 1994-2018 (25 years!) for his contributions to the various online Forums about Excel and is known world-wide for his contributions in Excel. As an MVP, he met yearly with his fellow-MVPs at Microsoft’s headquarters in Redmond, where he had access to the product developers. He has been a beta tester for new versions of Excel since version 1.5, and was asked by Microsoft for his input for newer versions of Excel. In 1995 he led a session called "Maximizing Excel Development Using Array Formulas" at Microsoft's Tech Ed Conference in New Orleans, and he led a session called Tips and Tricks at a Microsoft convention in New York City. He has hosted London’s Global Excel Summit each year since 2021, and in person in 2024, as well as led a session on tips and tricks. He also led a session on tips and tricks at the Las Vegas’ Financial Modeling World Championship in December, 2023. He has led online sessions all over the world including Africa, India, England, Canada and of course, the USA.
