- Microsoft Office Online (Excel) It is a Microsoft Office suite (Including Excel online) that is just online with minor addition of features, and lacks some power user features of the desktop app such as, macros, mail merge, Format Painter, shading, borders and the ribbon, etc.
- Aug 31, 2015 Microsoft sells Excel for Mac as part of Office for Mac. That would be equivalent. Otherwise, there are a few spreadsheet apps for Mac, including Numbers from Apple's iWork office suite, LibreOffice (free and open source), and others.
- Finally, some Excel shortcuts are just plain different on a Mac. For example, the shortcut for Edit Cell in Windows is F2, and on a Mac, it's Control + U. The shortcut to toggle absolute and relative references is F4 in Windows, while on a Mac, its Command T.
- The answer is to use Control + Option + Enter, which will create a line break in the cell. As an alternative, Control + Command + Enter can also be used to achieve the same. These combinations work both in Excel for Mac 2011 and the new Excel for Mac 2015.

- Excel is not exactly expensive, you know. And there is a Mac version from Microsoft.
- If you're a student, see if your school has a license for Office. I was able to get Office 2004 for the Mac for $10. Sure, I use it about once a year, but it's saved my butt a couple of times when clueless folks sent me files that were otherwise unreadable.
- Would you suggest I steer away from iWork all together and just go for Office?
- Enrh?
Keynote kicks PowerPoint's butt. I like Pages a lot (even though it *is* a bit.. odd), and can't stand Word. It is an abomination unto life itself. There is no Excel analogue in iWork however.
I use Office for when there's no other choice, and iWork for, well.. work.
I wouldn't pay full price for Office, but at $10 it was worth it as a safety net. See if you can get a similar deal. - Right now, there's no direct competitor to Excel on the platform.
Most believe that iWork will get a spreadsheet component in January, while the recent released beta of Tables looks promising.
(They picked an odd time to launch though.)
There's also Mesa or Mariner Calc available, though neither has seen a lot of market success.
In terms of productivity software, this has been the year of Project Management on the Mac.
I can easily see next year being the Year of the Spreadsheet.
But for the moment, you may be stuck with Excel. - I've heard great things about Keynote and Pages. Plus I liked Keynote from playing around with it at the Apple Store. I'll have to talk to my brother and see if he can score a nice EDU deal for Excel since he's still in college.
So as of today, I'm leaning toward iWork + Excel.. now I just gotta drop $1499+ for the iMac - Can you get Excel outside of Office? I thought they were all together.

Mesa comes from the universe of OpenSTEP developers. Mariner Calc has been on the Mac since forever. If these apps had not been successful, they would have disappeared years ago. - You could run the spreadsheet in NeoOffice. Also, AppleWorks is still available for the education price of $39 which has a spreadsheet component to it.
- I'll second AppleWorks.. it's everything iWorks SHOULD be !
Granted, it hasn't been updated in 5 years, but in that 5 years, you'd think iWorks could have developed a spreadsheet and a database! - I'm still using AppleWorks spreadsheet myself, but I thought it had been discontinued.
I just checked the Canadian AppleStore and lo and behold, it's up there for CDN $119.00!!!
Oh come on Apple! The thing hasn't been revved in six years. Drop it to $29. already! - office 2004 kicks ass. there is openoffice as well for excel type spreadsheet. Office 2004 is very good though I would recommend it. Most powerful office suite out there.

I think they should just drop the price all together. - Quote:Originally Posted by KingOfSomewhereHot

Negative..a brand new iMac shouldn't ever touch 5+ year old code. Running AppleWorks in Rosetta with it's OS 9 interface would be a sad sight. And AppleWorks kinda really sucks (even if we ignore the fact that it's been ported from OS 9 and still carries tons of legacy code.) - Quote:Originally Posted by kim kap sol

Some of us like to get our work done. Others are more concerned about the age of their application code. We each have our priorities. - Quote:Originally Posted by Mr. Me

You're right..I won't waste any more of your time. I'm sure you're drawing something real nice in AppleWorks. - I have looked at the applications mentioned and it appears they are capable of analyzing data and producing reports, but I did not see any with ODBC support which, to me, seems like a feature that would be the deciding factor as to whether or not the application is used by a business (i.e. corporations, actuaries).
- The extension '.csv' seems to be a fairly general and commonly used file type for database. Do any of the previously mentioned programs (besides Excel) open and save to this format?

CSV is short for 'comma-separated values', which is all it is. It's plain text; a comma (sometimes a tab or a space or some other character) separates columns, and a linebreak separates rows. So, lots and lots of apps can easily handle that.
(FWIW, the 'Tables' app previously mentioned exports CSV. I haven't tried importing an existing CSV, however.) - apple should do an aqua build of openoffice, tidy up the printing dialogues and include it on all new macs. Gimpshop could also be included.
