There's a sample workbook here, that uses an alternative method to show
scenarios:

under the heading, 'Alternative to Scenario'

Variables are stored on a worksheet, and a scenario name is selected
from a dropdown list to display its variables.

It's easier to maintain than scenarios, and could be linked to a database.

I have spreadsheets in which I need to run various scenarios for well more
than the 35 cells Excel permits. Using "versions" in Lotus was much easier.
Any suggestions on how to easily accomplish this in Excel? I am in the
process of breaking down the sheets into numerous groups of 35 or fewer
cells, but it is quite time consuming.
