Components of a notebook
Notebooks, spreadsheets, and their associated elements are the core of
the Quattro Pro application. Notebooks provide a way to organize many
spreadsheets within the same file. There are 18,000 spreadsheets in a
notebook. Each spreadsheet consists of approximately 1,000,000 rows
and 18,000 columns.
Outline of notebook components
The following information describes the basic components of a Quattro
Pro notebook.
Spreadsheets
A spreadsheet is an electronic ledger. It contains columns and rows in
which you enter, arrange, calculate, and analyze data. In a spreadsheet,
you can arrange and categorize data, perform simple math operations,
and apply complex formulas. Once you enter your data in a
spreadsheet, you can create a chart, add maps and graphics, or produce
a report. The spreadsheet you see when Quattro Pro opens is one of
thousands available in each notebook.
