Foodservice Cost Control Using Microsoft(r) Excel(r) for Windows

Summary: A real dissapointment
Review: Foodservice Cost Control using Microsoft Excel was a real disappointment. The first few chapters led me to believe that the entire book was structured as a tutorial with a lesson in the beginning and spread sheet examples at the end. The was true for several chapters but fell through in chapters 6 and 7.
Another major shortfall is that rather than generating new Microsoft Spreadsheet it appears that they simply copied the original spread sheets from the precursor of the is book (Foodservice Cost Control with Lotus 123, for the DOS version of Lotus) and converted them to DOS style sheets with no Windows formatting. The content of the book is very good but the editing and conversion over to a Excel version is very disappointing. For an almost $50 softcover book I think they could have spent a little more time!
