If I didn't have to use Office or it ran on Linux, I'd be on Linux.

- jcelerier 4y agoOffice 365 doesn't cut it ?
- xupybd 4y agoUnfortunately no. There are a few features missing and I don't want to think how hard interop would be. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/vsto/office-primary-interop- https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/vsto/office-p... assemblies?view=vs-2022 Much of what I work on involves programs that interop with Excel. Yes there are other ways of writing and reading spreadsheets but sadly none are as reliable as using Excel interop. At least if your spreadsheet has to be compatible with Excel. It is possible someone has build an amazing library that does this but I'm not aware of it. Edit: I could have Windows on a VM but that is awkward and slow. I find I get more done without that added bit of complexity.
