New Excel blog by John Walkenbach on Excel 12 – the next version of MS Excel.
Hey, A New Excel Blog!
This is the first entry in a new blog called The Next Version of Excel. The purpose of this blog is to be a useful (and interesting) source for information related to the upcoming version of Excel — currently known only as Excel 12.
At this point in time, hardly anything is known about Excel 12. But check back often. You never know what might get leaked out.
