I agree with what you're saying, I've seen it used to write up a text document! Talk about missing the point... Often equations are needed, along with graphing. It's very expandable and customisable by a non-programmer with VBA. I'm not saying it's the best, but it's pretty good at what it does, and there's not a better spreadsheet application that I've found. As an aside, I've seen it be used for managing portfolios worth millions. Then you get a clever IT dept say 'oh no, you shouldnt be doing that on a spreadsheet' and so a new IT project is created to retire the spreadsheet and copy the functionality. Predictably, the project is late, over-budget and under-delivers, so the spreadsheet lives on. Tragic tale of far too many IT projects. |
