MS Excel is a fantastic tool used not only to create and maintain tables with formulas, graphs and charts but also for a lot of custom functionality by implementing Excel VBA macros. You can do so many things in Excel, sometime I think the sky's the limit. Basic functionality: --------------------- - Graphs and charts - Tables with formulas - GUI elements: push buttons, dropdowns, forms Advanced functionality: -------------------------- - Custom VBA Scripting - Creating custom templates - Advanced graphing functionality - Statistical analysis and calculations - Web information scraping (automated and manual) to create variety of databases (i.e. names with addresses for mailing campaigns etc.) - and many others, just drop me a note so I can advise you on what approach to take for your specific task
