I would like to be able to translate the text in a complete Excel spread
sheet from one language to another, e.g. Italian to English using Excel 2007.

There is no automated way of doing that. I am affraid you have to translate
it yourself. Computers are not good at translating languages. Too many
obscure rules and words that don't translate well...

Even taking into account some translation errors occuring it would still be
very helpful and save time over manually doing the changes.

After all translations can be done in Word and it is just the text
translation that is being carried out, not any calculations changes or
modifications.

Hence I would see this as an advantage and after the spreadsheet has been
translated then it could be checked and corrected manually
