Comment on Ask HN: What are the crazy/clever ways you use and abuse spreadsheets?

Comments

This is a great concept, and in fact already exists as an Excel addin - http://schematiq.htilabs.com

It's paid-for software, but available free for personal use. Put simply, it extends the concept of what can be stored within a single cell on the spreadsheet, enabling much more powerful functionality.

There is also a Q&A forum at http://schematiq.htilabs.com/community so if you need to ask any questions you should be able to get some help.

Thats interesting, thanks!

I plan to build something less limited to the traditional spreadsheet UI though. Same concept but more flexible UI, so that for example you may process image data by manipulating pixels as cells.
