Okay, all you Microsoft Excel fans - just what IS the latest and greatest
version of Excel? (This is for a 1M Mac Plus, if that matters.)
Is there a upgrade path that is cheaper than just ordering a new one?
(I've got version 1.00, believe it or not.)
Please email your replies. Thanks in advance!

The local computer center says version 1.04 is the latest for MS Excel. (Or at least the latest that they have in stock??) Anyone know for sure?

(This is for a 1M Mac Plus, if that matters.) The last that I saw was 1.06f probably just labelled as 1.06. The date is early December 1987, I believe Dec 15 or thereabouts. -- Tim Ward at Seattle University Path: ...!uw-beaver!uw-entropy!dataio!suvax1!ward or: dataio!suvax1!ward@entropy.ms.washington.edu BTW: the second is for those on Internet who might use domain names...

I spoke with a dealer today and he indicated that 1.05 is the most recent. ========================================================== Bill Arbaugh Phone: (202) 697-6577 UUCP: *!uunet!cos!hqda-ai!arbaugh ARPA: In the works! ========================================================== -- ========================================================== Bill Arbaugh Phone: (202) 697-6577 UUCP: *!uunet!cos!hqda-ai!arbaugh ARPA: In the works! ==========================================================

From reading stuff here, I think that at MacExpo there was the release of version 1.5 (previous version 1.05) for the Mac. Paul Fons vmd.cso.uiuc.edu uxe.cso.uiuc.edu

MS Excel is at Version 1.06 or so I was told at MacWorld by a person in the MS Booth. I was there to complain about the MultiFinder bugs with 1.04 with regard to large memory spaces. I have 8megs and Excel bombs far to often as it uses more and more memory. I was told that by calling 1-206-882-8089 and asking Excel Product Support for the Excel 1.06 patch I would be fixed... Go for it! Bob LaserMan Murrow

Version 2.0, due out sometime later this year, will have all of the features of the PC version. As for the current version: according to Microsoft, there was no official 1.05 release, since they didn't want to confuse people with 1.05->1.5. The last version before 1.5 was supposed to be 1.06, and anything you have marked 1.05 is supposed to be a beta. This is just what I was told. If I'm wrong, I welcome the correction. ========================================================================= Robert Hammen Computer Applications hammen@csd4.milw.wisc.edu Delphi: HAMMEN GEnie: R.Hammen CI$: 70701,2104
