The Absyntax Excel Add-in for Microsoft Excel integrates Microsoft Excel spreadsheet software and the Absyntax framework. The add-in may be considered a universal add-in to the extent that it allows a Microsoft Excel user to invoke multiple user-defined operations, typically on ranges of data in Microsoft Excel worksheets. In this context, "user-defined operation" is a synonym for an Absyntax project.
The Absyntax Excel Add-in is most useful in any of the following circumstances:
you need to perform operations that are not supported by Microsoft Excel;
you need to perform operations for which no add-ins or macros exist;
existing add-ins or macros are not sufficiently configurable to meet your needs;
your cell formulas are long, complicated and difficult both to understand and to maintain;
you repeat the same formula across many cells;
you have to resort to using SQL to perform data table queries;
you want to use a Microsoft Excel workbook as the source for data to be passed to Absyntax projects;
you want to feed the output of Absyntax projects into a Microsoft Excel workbook;
you would rather use a single add-in than multiple disparate add-ins;
you do not have the software programming skills necessary to harness the Microsoft Excel developer capabilities.
If you are not familiar with the Absyntax framework, you are advised to read the Introduction and Fundamentals sections of the Absyntax Framework User Guide.
