I am developing spreadsheets for use in a High School. They are designed to record class records and through mail-merging produce report cards, profiles and individual records required by the exam board. ( My basic argument is why record it more than once? Just get a spreadsheet to record the data and then extract what you need for anything lese in a mailmerge right?)

1. I do not want to use complicated formulas - so advanced maths forget it!

2. I do want to clean up the look of my spreadsheets and remove the gridliness if possible so they look more like a Word document.

3. I am trying to merge it with Word so mail-merging is crucial.

4. I have a budget of ~£20/~$50 and it would have to be available in the UK. :biggrin: :biggrin:
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
If you want a database, use a database. Excel is for calculations. It can be used to store data, like a wrench can be used for a hammer, but you get the best results when you use the right tool.
