CIS 101 Intro. to Computer Information Systems

Excel Project 2 - Formulas, Functions, Formatting, and Web Queries

This lab assignment is from the Excel 2007, Complete Concepts and Techniques lab book.

  1. Read and do the Formulas, Functions, Formatting, and Web Queries tutorial, pages EX 81 - 141.  Skip pages 142 - 143, E-mailing a Workbook from within Excel.  Make sure you do the Save and Quit Excel steps on the bottom of page 143.
  2. Type the following in empty cells below the chart, say cells A18 - A20:

    • CIS 101 Excel Project 2
    • Class Meeting Day and Time (example: Friday 9:00 AM)
    • Your name
  3. Printouts 1 - 2:  Check your work.  When you are done with the tutorial your printouts should look like the following figures:
    • 2-71 on page EX 134
    • 2-74 on page EX 136
  4. Printout 3:  print the Portfolio Summary worksheet which contains the Web Query.  The printout should look similar, but not exactly like figure 2-1 (b) on page EX 83.  Please keep in mind that the stock quote data is updated about every 20 minutes during the business day when the New York Stock Exchange is open.  The figure in your book was taken a long time ago and your data will be different.  That's OK.  Please remember to print preview this worksheet and change the settings to landscape and scaling as "fit to 1 page" in order to conserve paper.  Hint:  Office button, Print, Print Preview, Page Setup.
  1. Save your file one last time. 
  2. Submit your homework for grading:

Traditional students:  Turn in the three printouts listed above.  Staple the printouts together with the formulas page as the last page.  I will take points off if the homework is not stapled.
Online students:  Upload the Silver Dollars Stock Club Portfolio Summary workbook file to the Excel Project 2 assignment in TalonNet.

Be sure to submit/turn in the lab assignment by the due date.
