What’s on the CD
The following sections provide more details about the software and other materials available on the CD.
eBook version of Excel 2007 Bible
The complete text of the book you hold in your hands is provided on the CD in Adobe’s Portable Document
Format (PDF). You can read and quickly search the content of this PDF file by using Adobe’s Acrobat
Reader, also included on the CD.
Sample files for the Excel 2007 Bible
The files discussed in the book are organized by chapter. With a few exceptions, the files are all Excel 2007
files that have either of the following extensions:
n XLSX: An Excel workbook file
n XLSM: An Excel workbook file that contains VBA macros
When you open an XLSM file, Excel may display a Security Warning and tells you that macros have been
disabled. To enable macros, click the Options button in the Security Warning panel and then select the
option labeled Enable This Content.
Because the files on this CD are from a trusted source, you may want to copy the files to your hard drive
and then designate the folder as a trusted location. To do so, follow these steps:
1. Open an Explorer window, and select the CD-ROM drive that contains the companion
CD-ROM.
2. Right-click the folder that corresponds to the root folder for the samples files, and choose
Copy from the shortcut menu.
3. Activate the folder on your hard drive where you’d like to copy the files. Right-click the
directory, and choose Paste from the shortcut menu.
The CD-ROM files will be copied to a subfolder in the folder you specified in Step 3. To designate this new
folder as a trusted location:
1. Start Excel and choose Office ➪ Excel Options to display the Excel Options dialog box.
2. In the Excel Options dialog box, click the Trust Center tab.
3. Click the Trust Center Settings button.
