What is Lotus and Microsoft Excel?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Once upon a time Lotus 1-2-3 was far and away the best spreadsheet application available to PCs. A lack of development has left it a long way behind Excel in most respects, although as far as I know Excel still doesn't have 1-2-3's ability to base a chart on three dimensional data.

When can you format cells in Excel?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You format them whenever you need to. You can do it before putting data in, so that it is immediately formatted when it is put in, or you can put all your data in and do the formatting when you are finished, or you could format it as you are working. The options are always there, so you can use them at any time.

It is a financial function. It returns the future value of an investment based on an interest rate and a constant payment schedule. So if you are paying in a set amount on a regular basis, like every month, and there is a fixed interest rate, it can work out how much your investment will be worth. See the link below for more details.

In one column type in the headings of the items and in the cell in the column next to each of those headings type in the value. Then at the bottom of the list of values use the SUM function to total them up. So say you have values in cells B2 through to B20, then in cell B21 you could have the following formula:

=SUM(B2:B20)

What are MS Excel advantages over MS Access?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you work on a huge number of sets of data, which you have to sort, filter, group, and create subgroups on which to calculate or extract values such as averages, medians, or/and maximums, you are better off with Access. The process of creating groups within groups and then performing calculations on those is way more cumbersome in Excel. Excel on the other hand will be better for analyzing up to a few hundred records of data. The number of records, however, cannot exceed 65536 records (Excel 2003) or 1,048,576 (Excel 2007) . This is the maximum number of records Excel can handle. It also depends on the way you want to analyse the data. Databases are good for finding relationships in data. Spreadsheets are good for crunching numbers and doing "what if" analysis (e.g. scenario models). Because of a spreadsheets two dimensional design (rows and columns), the way users use spreadsheets as combined input/storage/output systems, and a spreadsheets inability to easily establish enforceable relationship rules between rows (or columns) on the same or different spreadsheets, the true multi dimensional nature of data can be hidden from the user and/or violated by incorrect data edits. This can make analysis of data difficult if the data is stored in a spreadsheet. It is easy to extract data from a database into a spreadsheet to take advantage of a spreadsheets unique data manipulation features (e.g. pivot tables, charts etc). The real questions should be "Where do I store the data I want to analyse?" The answer to that is definitely "In a database". You can make it safe there. Then choose the appropriate tool for the analysis you want to do.
