Crystal xcelsius
Hi! I have recieved a great deal of outstanding advise and help from thi forum! And I trust the people here to voice an honest (and informed opinion. So I hope someone will have time to help me out with this. Do any of you have an opinion of the software program"Crysta Xcelsius"? Is it worth the 5 hundred bucks or can you pretty-much do it all wit VBA? If I create a workbook with Crystal Xcelsius features can a user wh does not have the software still use the workbook? Thanks for your time and your advise! -- Brian Matlac ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Brian Matlack's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...nfo&userid=350 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread.php?threadid=55711 |

Brian
never used the software so I can't really comment. BUT, if I'm reading it correctly, the software allows you to create presentations from existing spreadsheets ... in other word, make it look pretty for the CEO, whatever. Maybe I'm missing something. Looks like you can download an evaluation copy though so why don't you try it. http://www.crystalxcelsius.co.uk/ Quote: How it works Crystal Xcelsius is an intuitive stand-alone Windows application, designed to create engaging, interactive visual analytics from ordinary Excel spreadsheets. It is tightly integrated with Microsoft Office products, and requires no programming. Crystal Xcelsius uses a simple point-and-click interface to import Excel data and formulas, and output interactive visual analytics, charts and graphs, financial presentations, and business calculators directly to PowerPoint, PDF documents and the Web. Utilizing an intuitive and easy-to-use "point-and-click" interface, Crystal Xcelsius converts dull Excel spreadsheets into visual analytics in 3 simple steps End quote VBA doesn't sound like an alternative.
