Default Ever use Excel for documents instead of Word?

Ive never been a great master of Word.

Lately Im finding that even using Excel for non
traditional uses such as letters and documents seems as
intuitive to me as using Word.

Anyone else use Excel for 'bout everything?

I worked with a guy who used excel like a word processor, letters, memos,
etc. It works fine if all you want to do is replace the typewriter. But if
you want to use modern word processing features, like indenting and tabs, it
falls short.

Not a good idea, althugh you can do it. Why rob yourself of all the Word
goodies, such as autonumbering (of paragraphs), heading styles, merging etc
etc? Rather get to grips with Word
