About

The Spreadsheet Day blog celebrates the joy and challenges of working with spreadsheets. October 17th was voted the best day for Spreadsheet Day, because VisiCalc, the first spreadsheet for personal computers, was released on October 17th, 1979.

I’m Debra Dalgleish, an independent computer consultant who specializes in Microsoft Office programming and development. Self-employed since 1985, I’ve learned a lot about spreadsheets through my own experiences and experiments (some successful, some not so much). I’ve also seen the wide variety of systems and practices that my clients use, and have learned much from assisting them with data analysis.

For a large collection of Excel tutorials and sample files, please visit my web site:

I’ve written three books on Excel pivot tables, and you can read the outlines here:
