yes that's the case indeed.
I need a spreadsheet like interface with the only one difference that
in open office spreadsheet (calc) there are no buttons at the bottom
of the screen.
here may be the data is going to be arbitrary and yes I need all the
cells to be editable.
actually some part of this application was actually working in excel
with formulas where needed.
but that was too limited for the organisation so we are making this
application which involves monthly payment schedule for loans given to
NGO's and other bodies.
so I do need a spread sheet like interface.
