If you go to John Wilson's free guides for VI people, among other things there's a specific text file there related to doing almost anything/everything using Excel: http://web.onetel.net.uk/~fromthekeyboard/
These are very good things, and since they're in text files, I normally read them in Internet Explorer anyway since I can then (using Jaws), still add my own bookmarks etc. For example, something that I found out in his one related to Word (and something that most sighted guys wish they knew), is that if, in recent versions of Word (worked in 2000/2003), if you just type in something like: +---+---+---+ When you hit enter, you'll suddenly have a table in there with 3 columns, but apart from tricks like this he also has almost all the reference material you'd want for almost anything.
