Very true and a good post. Many managers and companies will go bananas if an employee wants to "program" any custom solutions for repetitive processes or for perceived efficiency. Then on the flip side, if the same employee gets "creative" with Excel, they are all for it, and smiling. Problem is, Excel can be like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole, might be the wrong tool, or the less efficient option. Nothing like watching various companies do absolute insanity and cause severe eye pain with convoluted and mangled up Excel spreadsheets. "Damn, at least go use MS Access or MS Project, if you going down this path."
