SHORT DESCRIPTION: A software package that allows users to easily set
up calculations and what-if analysis in a freestyle, user defined
format.
DESCRIPTION: FREE & EASY is designed to make your calculations and
what-if analysis easy to set up and easy to follow. You are not forced
into a grid of rows and columns as in a spredsheet. Instead you use a
freestyle, user defined structure. Start with a blank sheet, then add
cells (similiar to cells in a spreadsheet), descriptive text,
variables and ranges on the sheet wherever suits you. It is you who
define the structure of the sheet.
Over 200 on-line context sensitive and hyperlinked help topics are
availiable within the FREE & EASY environment. The FREE & EASY package
comes with tutorials and Instruction Book- both of which can be
accesed inside or outside the FREE & EASY environment. These features,
along with the freestyle design of FREE & EASY make learning fast and
easy.
The user can set how FREE & EASY does calculations. Several sheets and
windows can be opened at one time. "Make" files can be saved so FREE &
EASY can remember where you left off in your last session. All common
editing features (search and replace, cut and paste) are included. A
DOS shell and screen blanker as well as several sample sheets showing
various applications are also included. Registered users receive a
FREE & EASY newsletter periodically containing sample applications,
author feedback, users letters, questions and answers.
KEYWORDS: Spreadsheet, Analysis, Cells, Math, Calculator, Finance,
Statistics, What-if
