    What do you (dis)like in Excel?

    Hi,
    When MSO2007 appeared, I honestly tried several times to use it. It was useless. I really hated MS for what they had done. MSO2003 is all my love and I used it till 2014 and then installed 2013. I still google some things because I do not know where MS has put them (I know they made a built in search in 2016). But there are some features I enjoy using:
    IFERROR (the best!!!)
    AGGREGATE
    Context-sensitive menu
    adding a new sheet.
    What do you think about it?

    I would not be so uncompromising
    It is a matter of using
    data table and print form are different things.
    I use the attached file as a template very offen.

    I absolutely hate structured references.

    I also hate that not all functions can work with 3d references or that some functions won't work when referencing a closed file.

    Tony,
    MVP is not just a title.
    You can talk with MS more freely
    Did you ask them about it?

    MVP's (and others) have been asking for those things for years!
