Default Testing Reverse Compatibility and Compatibility in General

One of my books puts Excel useage at: [Excel 97 - 10%] [Excel 2000
- 45%] [Excel 2002 - 40%] and [Excel 2003 - 5%].


That book is seriously out of date, as any book must be that tracks
usage (note spelling) of changing versions of a product.

The great majority of my customers have Excel 2003 -- I'd guess
around 75%. There are maybe 10% for Excel 2000 and 2002 combined, and
about 15% Excel 2007. Those are just my impressions; I haven't
counted. :-)
