- Take a good look at Resolve, from Claris. I switched to it from Excel and
- the days of frequent crashes ended forever. Not only that, it is far
- more pleasing visually, it has a more coherent set of tools, and an
- incredibly powerful scripting language (the Wingz engine). Resolve's
- scripting capability is much better than most other spreadsheet macro
- languages. It's very similar to HyperTalk in design, and easy to use
- and easy to read.
