Review Quotes




"[U]pdated with new and reworked applications including some that take advantage of three-dimensional spreadsheet software. . . . [T]he approach is generic, and a user should, without too much difficulty, be able to use the problems to adapt to similar packages in a DOS, Windows, or Macintosh environment. . . . [I]ts aplications make it useful for someone starting use of spreadsheets in a library environment. After a familiarization period, an imaginative person should be able to use it as a basis for more complicated applications." --ALR
