I would like information on spreadsheets for Suns that support X. There is an article in the latest Unix Today comparing Lotus 123, 20/20, and WingZ, unfortunately, only 20/20 runs under X. There was a comment in the article about the lack of ease when dealing with multiple worksheets which cross reference each other. I would like to hear from people who have acutally used 20/20 to comment on it's strengths and weaknesses. I am also interested in hearing about other spreadsheets that people are using. Anyone have comments on UltraCalc II from Olympus Software Inc. or Q-Plan/CliqCalc from Quadratron Systems Inc.? These are listed in the latest Catalyst catalog from Sun. Please send mail to me directly (rapatel@pilot.njin.net). I will post the collected information if many people request it. Thanks, Rakesh Patel.

I would be very interested in a summary of your responses. I was quite excited after reading a review of WingZ the other day, until I read it was a SunView product. What I don't understand is why they went to the trouble to write a SunView product with the OPEN LOOK UI (and it must have been trouble, since Sun doesn't supply tools to do this, as far as I know).
