As mentioned prior, I've not seen this functionality in either Excel

describing (from how I understood it anyway).
Would be keen to see any example as well.

From how he describes it, it sounds quite useful in some situations. I
myself could have used it in the past on occasion. But it would only
lend itself to one-time jobs, which as I pointed out, are not really the
point of spreadsheets.
A little calculator popping up around a cell, with the cell as the
calculator viewport, would be kinda cool. IMHO Couldnt add more than a
few kB. And what with all the other gadgets that OOo comes with...

I took a MS Excel class a couple years ago. When you enter a value
into a cell, you can then upgrade that value by clicking on
the cell
(which already has a value in it), and when you do, a little tiny
calculator about the size of the cell itself comes up. The value in
the cell is displayed on the calculator and you can the click (for
example) '+', '145', '=' and the number in the cell is increased by
145. This is useful when (for example) entering weekly
income amounts
in a monthly spreadsheet.
Now I am using OpenOffice and would like to see the same thing. Is
this available? Can someone make one? Has anyone ever seen this? I
tried to fing the answer a while back and never found
anyone who ever heard of it.
Thanks,
Daryl Helwig
