If you are not thoroughly familiar with spreadsheets, and how functions and formulas can be used to perform calculations, this portion of the manual will be helpful for you.

Spreadsheets have been around for centuries (when calculated in computer years). And most everyone that uses a computer for business applications is aware of what a powerful tool they are. Their popularity prompted the makers of Microvellum products to use a spreadsheet as the main nervous system for the program. They are the perfect tools for product design because the user has complete control over the products. Spreadsheets should not be thought of as a lightweight database because databases serve a different purpose. Microvellum uses databases for tasks that are best suited for them. If you feel your comprehension of spreadsheets is limited, don't worry. Overdrive Pro and Microvellum Toolbox can be used with an understanding of only a few basic spreadsheet concepts.
