Overview
 

Microsoft Office Excel 2003 contains powerful tools to help you analyze, manage, and share critical business data. You can also work with industry-standard Extensible Markup Language (XML) data to make it easier to connect to business processes.

Features

Take advantage of data wherever it is

Excel 2003 can read data in any customer-defined XML schema. You can analyze XML data sources using charts, tables, or graphs.

Analyze data better

Excel 2003 builds on its commitment to reliable and accurate numerical analysis with enhancements in collinearity detection and more.

Collaborate using Windows® SharePoint™ Services

Save Excel 2003 spreadsheets to shared workspaces, where team members can get the latest version and save task lists, related files, and more.

Gather information without leaving your spreadsheet

The Research Task Pane helps you quickly find and add information from electronic dictionaries, reference materials, and online research sites.

Control distribution of your work

Use Information Rights Management (IRM) functionality to prevent recipients from forwarding, copying, or printing important spreadsheets.
