Excel as a development Platform? pros and cons?
Can somebody please enumerate through the pros and cons of developing an
application completely in Excel? By this I am referring to hijacking the user interface and adding custom menus, toolbars, data validation etc etc. I'd like your analysis to be based on a commercial grade application with extremely complex calculations as opposed to a simple "mortgage calculator". Thanks in advance. I am in possession of an application developed in 100% Excel which was developed by an "Excel Purist". It is upgrade/enhancement time and I am weighing the benefits of keeping it as is or going with a more robust professional looking VB.Net / VB6 front end.. |
