use lotus 1-2-3 commands in excel 2003

[Rik J]

can you please help me by telling me how to use lotus commands in the excel
2003 version as their seems to be no simple solution. i have set the
transition check boxes to checked (to no avail) and have looked on the help
and online help sections without success.

many thanks

Note that the transition formula entry is with regards to
1-2-3 release 2.2

Anything in particular?

If the OP means 123 slash (aka Classic) menu commands, then no joy. The
123 /-menu emulator is/was separate and distinct from transition
formula entry/evaluation.

Not really. Excel 2003 no longer provides support for 123 /-menu
commands. While it may be possible to write a LOT of VBA code to
provide a means of simulating 123's /-menu, it'd be a waste of time
(read: I myself wouldn't do it for free, and I doubt anyone else would
either).

You have two practical alternatives, and only you can decide which to
choose: (1) revert to an older versio of Excel that does simulate the
123 /-menu, or (2) finally learn how to do things in Excel without
using 123 /-menu commands at all.
