I am an intermediate user of Excel 2010 on Windows 7. I'm very comfortable with vlookups, pivot tables and the macro recorder.

I'm interested in creating a dynamic excel dashboard with various metrics from different segments of my company that I can present to upper level managers as an analysis tool.

The biggest requirement is that the dashboard must be easy to update. What's the best way to store the data that the dashboard will pull from? Access?

I've done a little research online regarding the subject but figured I would come to this forum for some expert guidance. I'm looking for books and any other materials that will help me in this process.

Thanks!

Excel Facts

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.
To create my Dashboard I use this small ebook: Create a Dashboard using PivotTable - Roger F. Silva

Good Luck :)
