Unpivot

This week we have special guest Dim Early - the reigning Excel World Champion - who took part in our new feature called “If you could ask any question to the Excel World Champion what would you ask? But since you’re not hear we’ll ask on your behalf”. It’s not a catchy title but it is descriptive 😁

 

Plus, we had Question of the Week: To be an expert, what’s more important, depth of knowledge of breadth of knowledge.

 

And there where the usual set of unexpected revelations
