Title: Faction Leaders: what are you using?
Post by: Dave Baughman on July 20, 2010, 03:36:41 PM
Considering the massive cluster of "fun" we have been having with regard to Open Office not playing nice with the orders sheet, I am gathering some data to determine who is using what in our community.

I am considering several options to try and reduce compatibility problems and general frustration related to working with the orders spreadsheet without compromising functionality, and it would be helpful if all faction leaders could please indicate what they are using as their spreadsheet reader.

The poll will run for three days only, so please respond ASAP.

Im using OpenOffice, and other than just rying to figure out the little things (abbreviations mainly), I find it acceptable

Prior to this experience, I never really used anything similar...all I did with Excel was to view what Dis had come up with

OpenOffice, because I refuse to pay for MS Office.  Even though PowerPoint is so much easier to use than OO Impress.

My old computer had Excel built in, so I used it, but with the new computer I've had to switch to open office, since it's not worth it to pay for something I can get for free, or at least so close as Open Office is.

The resualt is that most of my old files are excel style, while the new ones are OO.

Well I tried uploading to Microsoft's Skydrive Excel / Office live and it couldn't handle the validation.

Google Documents on the other hand looks to be mostly behaving.
It appears to have kept the formatting intact but lost the headers on the naval / ground tab as well as the quick hidding  rows/columns buttons on the expenses and naval tabs.

OpenOffice 3.2 Calc.

I could use Excel on my windows machine, but I prefer to game on my main machine while doing spreadsheets on my project system.
