Question What Spreadsheet program do you have?

[Spacethingy]

I was making something in Excel and I suddenly thought....

What do you guys have in the way of spreadsheet programs?

The best free alternative is probably OpenOffice (www.openoffice.org)

 

[Arrowstar]

Or LibreOffice, which is a recent fork of OpenOffice.

But personally, I stick with Excel.

LibreOffice Calc

More freer alternative to OpenOffice Calc.

OpenOffice Calc. Used to have MS Office but Dell screwed me over and didn't give me the disks I paid for, so it was lost with the rest of the hard drive last summer. Will never buy software that has free alternatives again.

Izack, Dell has that habit

With Dell you can count yourself lucky if they even give you a disk for your operating system. Usually they expect you to just turn in the machine and pay for the servicing when you need something.

I use the phrase "oh hell, it's a dell" pretty often...

Anyways, with OpenOffice being as good as it is nowadays, I think the only justification for owning MS-office is if it came with you machine.

Interestingly enough, though, my spellchecker doesn't recognize OpenOffice, while it seems perfectly aware of what MS-office is. Someone's got to give the guys from OpenOffice a hand in promotion.
