Nice reference book for data analysis in the chemistry lab

As a member of chemistry department in a University, who teach student the basic skill of use of Excel in the lab, I find this book a very useful tool for myself. Although it is true that the book is a little too complicated for the average user who knows only the basics of spreadsheet and barely graph the data, however for somebody who needs to write macro functions for the students to perform the calculations effortlessly, Excel for Chemist is a very comprehensive book. Exmaples given in this book is fair: after all, this book is not for everybody, and I have a feeling that Billo wrote this book based upon the assumption that most readers know more than the basic of Excel (which is not too surprising, considering the fact that Excel is one of the most heavily used spreadsheet around).
