Just listening to Mhz talk about it makes me think it's not going to be liked
by more people than just him. How many executives do you know who want to be
handed a worksheet with links they need to follow to review/work with it and
have to old a button down for valuable seconds of their time?
As someone who does a good bit of developing inside of Excel, I understand
the developer frustration of trying to get inside of a cell with a link at
times. But I've learned to live with that and could see it from the end user
standpoint.
At the very least this should probably be a toggle featu delay on for
developers, delay off for the real world. For those that click on links
accidentally? Aim better next time?

Yes, for some users who use a feature regularly, change can be a pain, I am
staggered how many people are *really* upset about the deprecation of the
'scanner and camera wizard'. To me it seems trivial...we're a spreadsheet
program! But I guess 'you can please some of the people all of the time, all
of the people some of the time but never.........'
For example I am not sure the large grid is a good idea, but most would
welcome it... you would think all, but no.
Remember too that it is still a beta and with all the major changes, I
suspect it will be at beta until the next version (XL13???), a little like
XL97 and 2000, so keep hoping and lobbying <g

Yes Nick, Thanks for the reply... I'm right at 40 years old now and
through the years it never seems to get better with certain computer
programs when some things go from good to worst... It amazes me that
they wouldn't just put a simple choice for the the link selections.. I
personally like the Idea of moving on the fly.. Click the link and get
where I need to be..
I used to use various Music Programs and it never fails that one
program always had something the other didn't and vise-versa... Very
few Programs seem to have things very fexible for many users.... It
just blows my mind that the improvements for 2007 actually will aquire
you to now wait and hold a cell for a second or two to follow a
link...WOW HOW UNIQUE! no choice at all, at least as I see it
now...
