It would be nice to have spreadsheets within Ultra Recall, even a spreadsheet with limited calculation capabilities. This could be a separate document type so that one could create lists and tables much more easily than embedding a table within a text document.

This is available in Memo Master (http://www.jbsoftware.org/memomaster/details.htm) where one decides on the type of document at the point of creation just as one does in Ultra Recall.

Please elaborate on how this might be achieved.

I have tried dragging an excel file into Ultra Recall. If I drag it into the data explorer it appears as a mess of text in an Ultra Recall item details pane, if I drag it into the the item details pane it just creates a link, when I click on the link it opens the spreadsheet in excel in a separate window.

How might I see the spreadsheet opened in the item details pane?

I have seen hints on this forum that Ultra Recall might function well as an OLE client but I see little evidence of this from my own experimentation.

Please enlighten me.

:confused:

Thank you.

I now have Word and Excel documents displaying within Ultra Recall although Word displays its ribbon/toolbars whilst Excel does not. I do not know how to get Excel to display its ribbon/toolbars although the keyboard shortcuts appear to work as expected.

This is a significant step forwards.

Many thanks for your help.
