cVue is a spreadsheet that has been designed to better organise your work: arrange your sheets in our workbook, segregated by dividers (see screenshot). Much better than tabs!

Currently, we are working on providing cross sheet linking and will eventually add charting and drawing tools.
We currently have no plans to charge for this software once the beta period ends. However, please be aware that this might change.

Community Students Spreadsheets
http://www.cleo.net.uk/community/spreadsheet?invite=1
This community is for teachers to use with their students/pupils. It has two distinct 'audiences'.
The first is for the teacher introducing students/pupils to spreadsheet applications or developing pupils understanding of how a spreadsheet can be used.
The examples remove the need to know how to prepare a spreadsheet or start with an over-facing screen of blank cells both for teacher and student.
There are various themes available but I am very willing to develop a theme from your own idea.
Just e-mail the idea with a few details of what you hope the spreadsheet will do.
The second audience is the teacher as a classroom administrator. Several spreadsheets are designed to make those tedious tasks a little easier.
