Hi,

Before posting questions here, I'd like to be able to independently
search the wealth of tips, techniques, code, etc on the Web in an
organised way. Some sites have excellent indexes of these tricks on
their individual sites. Is there any source that pulls this info from
these different sites together (preferably in an organised way)?

Failing that, I'd like to know how experts on this site reference their
info, because your references seem to be consistently at your
fingertips. What sources do you use and how do you sort the wheat from
the chaff when answering questions? Here's a couple of indexes. What
other indexes do you recommend?

http://www.contextures.com/tiptech.html

Many thanks in advance for helping me learn how to fish.

Thanks Ron, Paul and Nastech,

Ron de Bruin's add-in is a cute addition which I'm gratefully using,
and should be made part of the standard Excel (Word, Powerpoint) help
menu. Even lets me quickly find all threads I've posted to here from
within Excel.

Thanks for the sites/methods referenced in this addin and in the
responses.

I'd like to be able to optionally restrict Google searches to a group
of selected favourite sites. Lazy, I know, but I'd love to do this in
one operation. Not feasible?

I guess I'm a tad surprised that there is not a single site which
specialises in logically organising (with summary explanations) the
best Excel tips and tricks on the Web, providing links to those source
sites.

Back to surfing,
 
I don't think I could find it quick enough, but remember site (probably mvp
site / from here) that had put together a CD of these postings. You would
have to search some.
