A Sneak Peek At Excel 2010's Sparklines
---------------------------
A new form of chart!
Sparklines are a new form of chart available in Excel 2010. Simply put, sparklines are thumbnail charts - miniature versions of their full-grown brethren, sans axes, titles, and other formats.
Enabling Windows 7's "GodMode"
Windows 7 contains an interesting feature that allows users to access all of the operating system's control panels from a single location. This feature is known as GodMode and is very easy to access.

Using Check Boxes To Select Items In Windows 7 And Windows Vista
By default, in both Windows 7 and Windows Vista, to select multiple items in a folder, users must use a combination of the CTRL key and mouse clicks or the SHIFT key and mouse clicks. Fortunately, in both operating systems, you can enable a little-known tweak that makes selecting multiple files or folders as simple as checking boxes

Microsoft Announces
Office 2010 Pricing
Microsoft has unveiled pricing on the upcoming retail editions of Microsoft Office 2010 and, in the process of doing so, also indicated that it would not offer "upgrade" pricing on the desktop productivity suite. As a result, Office users should carefully plan and consider their upgrade strategy into Office 2010, as a short-sighted strategy might prove to be costly in the long run.
Microsoft is trimming the number of retail editions of Office 2010 to three, as compared to five in Office 2007:
- Office 2010 Home and Student
- Office 2010 Home and Business
- Office 2010 Professional

The Value Of On-Site
Technology Training
Most likely, you receive this newsletter because at some point in the past you attended a K2 Enterprises continuing professional education (CPE) training session sponsored by a state CPA society or similar organization. Delivering timely, relevant, and practical technology-related training courses through state CPA societies is something in which we take great pride. However, what you may not have realized is that in addition to offering our courses through state CPA societies in "public" venues, we also offer these courses as private, on-site learning opportunities where the value of the content can increase substantially.
