- Quote from page 360 of February 11 issue.
- "But what of application software such as Microsoft Excel for
- Windows? It's not difficult to see that Excel makes fairly
- heavy use of undocumented Windows: Jsut examine EXCEL.EXE and
- EXCELDE.EXE with the same MAPWIN utility we've been using to explore
- other Windows executables and libraries."
-
- They also include a list of the undocumented calls in excel.
-
- This information is based on windows 3.0, and so some may now be
- documented, but at the time excel was written it was using calls
- that were not documented.
