Excel is to me basically a sequel database broken in a few key ways. And some people (a lot of...?) like it that way.
- EForEndeavour 7y agoAs an aside, this is the very first time I've ever seen "SQL" written out as "sequel."
- mikorym 7y agoNot deliberate; I just write things out as I say them and didn't review.
- OzCrimson 7y agoFor a lot of individuals and small businesses true databases have a tough learning curve. I commend the Excel developers for recognizing this and including things like Power Query and Power Pivot. They aren't there to completely replace databases, but they are a decent middle-ground for meeting people where they are.
