Not possible. You can try formatting excel spreadsheets.
Yeah...not possible. It's like trying to learn a new language in a day. You can pick up a little, but until you use it everyday for at least 6 months, you won't know shit.
buy a 'for dummies' book. that should get you to the somewhat expert level...
I have the "test" that banks use to gauge your excel skills/speed. It comes with a list of formatting instructions that you need to finish in 30 seconds or less.
PM me if you want it.
Get a book about Excel and open it when you get the test and browse the contents. Of course you should read it a little first. I did this and passed one test, but it was 20 questions and 30 seconds per question. So it depends on how much time you have, or is it just 1 question, 30 seconds? I think that seems really hard. Good luck!

Try the BIWS Excel training course.. you could learn tons of excel and finish the course in one day
