I've wondered about open office for a while but as an avid user of excel,
I'm curious to know how the OO version compares to M$ Excel which I find
extremely versatile and capable.
Anyone care to comment please?

Its different, it doesn't support office applications (vba, macros, etc.),
it works well enough to be useful, its free as opposed to the £18 office
costs nhs workers.
