Hi gamers, seems like the place to go for people good at IT. :P

I am doing a little project where I work, on the side of my main job role I plan to improve certain ways things function in my (amateurish) organisation. I need someone good with MS Excel to help me design an spreadsheet fit for a particular purpose. I may be able to get the organisation to pay some kind of commission, but one thing to notice is my organisation IS NOT a commercial business, so this may not be possible.

Either way the project itself should not be too much effort for someone GOOD with Excel, a few days/week’s worth of effort for a couple hours a day max coordinating with myself, so long as you actually know what you’re doing and have the desired work ethic/communication skills.

If you’re interested, hit me up on Steam, http://steamcommunity.com/id/stoyanovich/ if my friends is full leave a message here I’ll add you.

Cheers.

No idea what you’re trying to do, but I think if you need something done in excel that takes more than 20 minutes to set up, maybe excel wasn’t the best choice of software to be using..

Maybe it’s a small credit union, which can’t/don’t want to afford professional CRM :)

Because chances are you can probably do it in a lot less time using something that was made for it.

Of course you can do many things in Excel. You can also push a car from Paris to Berlin. Doesn’t mean it’s the best way to go about it.

excel is fast and easy to use for most purposes, like aggregating stats or making calculations. dunno what other purposes you would use excel that is faster with other programs.

I’ve seen an Irish water company using excel instead of an actual database to store billing details, customer records, usage data, etc.

Fair enough. Although “using something else” does not necessarily imply added resources and costs.. Maybe if you would give out some more details though people can come up with other suggestions.

Eh? That’s not at all what I said..
