Hello, I downloaded Excel 2007 trial version and here's my comments (and
sorry for my bad english).
In Excel 10, one could see the cell contents immediately when the cell
became active. For example, if I had a string of 2000 characters in a cell I
could see in the formula box as much of this string as fits in the screen
when I choose that cell. But in Excel 12 this seems not to be possible.
Instead, the formula box is "fixed" sized. There's only one, three or other
predefined amount of rows visible at the same time. And now there's a
scrollbar in the formula box. Did the developers really think that this new
formula box is better than the earlier? This is not good at all!
Am I the only one who thinks that there should be more options for
customizing Excel 2007's formula box? The formula box in Excel 10 was
perfect. Very intuitive and handy, and it was possible to insert huge amounts
of data in one cell and access to the data very easy and fast.
The product seems otherwise good but I'm not going to buy it unless the
great Excel 10 formula box becomes available! The formula box is Excel's
heart!
