Absolutely. Aside from the truly awful Microsoft help, Excel is probably a lot like whatever spreadsheet you learned on. In fact, in some basic ways, it's easier. You may never have to write a formula again, given the number available in the program. What you want to do sounds fairly straight forward. If you like, you can create a quick and dirty spreadsheet in Excel, and then import it to Word, where you can massage it a bit.
