Info-Stat was founded in the late 1980s. The founder, Jim Colville, CPA, was performing accounting related consulting projects and many requests were made for statistical analysis-type projects. The Info-Stat name was not in effect at that time. At first, these projects were performed using Lotus 1-2-3 and then Excel v 3 and 4 beginning around 1990. No web-based projects yet, a bit before the Internet being mainstream. We began using the name InfoStat and issuing reports in that name.

In 1996 the company obtained the Domain name Info-Stat.com (with the hyphen) as InfoStat was already taken and began doing business with Excel knowledge articles and Excel file downloads along with other technology topics.

Back tracking, the CPA spreadsheet consulting business evolved into dedicated PC Training in the Fall of 1986 which became San Diego’s largest and most prominent PC training company. Yes, some consulting projects still came our way. Our training focus was first, basic through advanced software training, but second, tailored programs to fit the companies specific needs. In other words, Solutions based. About this time the PC Training began to become over saturated and large mass training companies took over the market. We kept with our Solutions Based approach (and still do to this day), but glory days of great revenue declined and we supplemented the training with consulting projects, large and small, large and small companies.

The Info-Stat business was revitalized and modernized in 2023 as the new Excel365Solutions.com website utilizing all the attributes of the legacy Info-Stat topics and adding to it the evolution of technology and Excel 365.
