Abstract

Next to word processing software, spreadsheet software is perhaps the most popular application used in business. Like word processing software, spreadsheets are flexible tools. A spreadsheet application combines analytical, presentation, and database components in a single package. The analytical tools vary from the simple summation of rows and columns to the more advanced regression or correlations analysis, scenario management, and even spreadsheet revision tracking. The database tools of most spreadsheet applications can manage both their own internally generated database files and pull database information from outside sources sort and filter this information and make it available to the spreadsheet's analytical tools. When the numbers have been sufficiently crunched, the applications can then be called upon to chart the data and provide sufficient formatting control to wrap the figures and charts into a presentable package for show and tell.
