    Default Microsoft Excel.

    What do you think of Microsoft Excel's thousands of practical uses in today's business world?

    Aren't Autosum, Solver, and Pivot Tables just the greatest things ever imagined?

    3D Clustered Bar Charts really make my day, also!

    Nested If functions that go on for days really turn my crank.

    Also, I'm back, because I have a custom title now, and I think that's neat.

    Even though from a moral standpoint, I think Microsoft is the epitome of the big, evil, corporation and I hate them for it, all of the MS Office programs make work alot easier....

    I agree with Parvus Edea. Much as I dislike Microsoft, I can't imagine being able to do my work without Word and Excel.

    EDIT: Except for the Graphics. ClipArt really sucks now. It used to be much better.

    I think OpenOffice.org's program Calc can do all that and it's free.

    I wish it was easier to use.

    Wait - scratch that one. I wish I had spent more time learning how to use it at School.

    Welcome back, Caspian.

    Excel is extremely helpful in engineering applications, but it could use a more integrative language. VB macros just don't cut it for me - I want to be able to program each cell's function in C.

    I find Excel really, really dumb.
    It makes complicated things that should be simple.

    I use openoffice 1.4, which has an equivalent word processor but an inferrior spreadsheet program.

    I would use the OO word equivalent, but MS Excel.

    I love excel, and I think it's kinda funny that it has a better calculator then the one in system tools, and most windows users will never learn that :P
