      Does learning LIbreOffice or other suites translate to MS Office?

      Aside from basic formatting tasks, hell no. PivotTables, real time collaboration, 365 integration, meeting transcription, AI editing, text generation and proofing, goals and task planners.

      Your shit doesn't translate over AT ALL

      /this: mewling about "alternative" software is the equivalent of idiots insisting that the *secure* message app they use is the one everyone of their friends and family should use because it's not botnet (or some other buzzword)

      the rest of us use teams and whatsapp because most of us aren't the people signing multi million dollar deals with software organisations.

      Strictly speaking, Excel's formulas constitute a programming language.
      In addition to Visual Basic for Applications and regular formulas, you can also write programs within Excel using Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) and the Power Query M Formula Language.

      Power BI can run R and Python scripts. Forcing Excel to do something similar using VBA is kind of finicky.

    Why do I need a Word? I do all my coursework in LaTeX (i use emacs btw)

      Because nobody else in the cubicle farm is autistic enought to use LaTeX, almost all companies standardize on Office, and nobody has time trying to open your documents because you're autistic and demanding to use LaTeX in a white collar job.

      There are many options in office than most people don't know even exist so they think they know it well.

    I work in an office with a variety of ages, and just by account of being semi tech literate they think I'm a wizard.

    If you have to use this stuff for work, you can at least make it more tolerable by learning it well, shortcuts especially for me.

      I get people coming to me in the office, instead of IT, because I know more than they do, especially for things like using printers - printer driver dialogs are like magic to most people and the chimps in IT, all they do is go online and look at YouTube. But I'm that annoying motherfucker that reads manuals. I don't even have a tech position, lol.
      (Don't worry about what I do, I'm not telling you.)

      I've done all kinds of shit with Office over the years, most office drones use the spacebar instead of the tab bar, let alone know how to deal with the hellscape that is a mail merge. I worked at one place where I added an auto signature to my email, and half of the fat middle aged women acted like I hacked the Pentagon.

      I've posted about it here, I worked with a guy who was a Gandalf level wizard with EXCEL, he knew it inside and out - making charts and shit at work he could do blindfolded, he made serious cash outside of work freelancing and making tracking systems in small businesses based on Excel alone.

      Powerpoint needs to be scrapped and new code started, Apple's Keynote blows Powerpoint out of the fucking water. (Apple's Numbers and Pages blow chunks tho. Word is king baller document chad, and Excel is king god spreadsheet.) I work with both Mac and Windows at my job, and I'd love to standardize on Keynote - but the web version is total ass and not a solution, for Windows.

        is it possible to learn these powers? if i try googling for "advanced office tutorial" its just a sea of hindi surface level stuff.

        is there a hardcore "god of excel extreme edition" tome of all dark arts of excel/word somewhere?

          Possible? Sure, why not. But you, specifically? Dunno, I don't know how retarded you are. The guy I worked with had a bookshelf of all of teh "Excel Bible" reference books, try that. Or sign up for some course. Lynda.com had some good ones, but they're MS/LinkedIn now, no clue what they're like now.

          Bearing in mind that I haven't done anything advanced with Excel in almost 20 years, and don't really know what kind of stupid things companies are doing with Office 365 cancer, I would say your best bet is to just poke around the UI exploring and pressing F1 for help on topics.
          Then go to the microsoft docs to learn VBA scripting
