Embedded status lines should eliminate annoying popup "OK"windows

A

Aaron Kosar

"OK!" A design flaw in Excel prompts users to verify commands (such as the
results window after find/replace the contents of a cell) and waters it down
by giving the results of the action. This window is unnecessary and watses
time. Incorporating this feature into the active window instead of as a
separate pop-up would streamline performance and remove the need to second
guess the user's intentions by seeking approval. Excel developers, please
consolidate this message into the find/replace option and elsewhere where
these pop-ups linger.

Click on OK to continue.
