SpreadsheetWorlds Spreadsheet Aided Engineering Self-Study CD-Rom Celebrates its First Year of Sales to Companies such as NASA, Dow Chemical & Delphi

Encino, CA - - February 23, 2002 - - Engineers from aerospace, automotive and defense companies have helped SpreadsheetWorld successfully launch their Self-Study version of Spreadsheet Aided Engineering" over the last year.

The spreadsheet & VBA are powerful tools that are vastly under utilized in the engineering profession. There is a tendency to view the spreadsheet in terms of its limited capability in early versions, but it is important that engineers become more aware of the power and capability of current versions." says Dr. Tom Mincer, Professor of Mechanical Engineering at California State University and CEO of SpreadsheetWorld.

The course developed by Dr. Mincer & Air Force Academy Instructor David McDaniel is designed to achieve that objective by reinforcing the concepts with real life examples. Participants develop an increased overall understanding of their systems and processes, increased integration of engineering disciplines and better intuition of performance dependence on design parameters.

Engineers who have participated in the on-site and public versions of Spreadsheet Aided Engineering learned how to integrate Visual Basic, FORTRAN or C with Excel, Develop add-in collections for rapid functional modeling, use Excel ActiveX controls for engineering project control and do dynamic system simulation inside the optimization loop.

Dr. Mincer has developed this outstanding workshop over the last 7 years. Spreadsheet Aided Engineering has been offered over 100 times to more than 1,500 engineers at companies such as Lockheed Martin, Northrop-Grumman, NASA, Dow Chemical, General Motors, Goodyear Tire & Rubber Pratt & Whitney and Harley-Davidson. It is available in on-site, public and self-study versions.

SpreadsheetWorld offers 30 additional Spreadsheet and Visual Basic courses including Advanced Integrated System Design, A Hands-On Workshop featuring Excel, CO & SolidWorks" and FORTRAN, DLLs & Integration with Excel/VBA". They have developed the SpreadsheetWorld Toolbox Manager for Excel add-ins in addition to their own line of add-ins. SpreadsheetWorld maintains a free membership website where add-ins can be downloaded free of charge. Information on SpreadsheetWorld products and courses is available on their website at http://www.spreadsheetworld.com or by calling (818) 995-3931.
