Hi gang --
I've been frustrated in looking on the freeware sites. Can anyone recommend an easy-to-learn-and-use freeware spreadsheet program similar to Excel?
Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Open Office has what Microsoft Office has: http://www.openoffice.org/ Very good...and it can cross-platforms with MS Office.

If OpenOffice isn't what you're looking for, the last freeware version of Spread 32 does a pretty good job. Scroll down on this page:

The Novell version of OpenOffice is supposed to work with many Excel macros. This is (slowly) being improved. I have not tested this myself.

Father Guido!

Is it really you?? I was a student in your Spanish class at the Five Minute University. ¿Como está usted?

You see, I still remember after all these years. Just as you predicted.

Your Faithful Student,
Caesar
