CHAPTER 1: OVERVIEW

History of MS Excel

MS Excel is arguably the most sought-after, customizable, and powerful business solution of all time. MS Excel has stayed relevant since 1982 when it was first launched as "Multiplan," a well-accepted Control Program for Microcomputers (CP/M). However, it lost relevance with MS-DOS systems to Lotus 1-2-3. Microsoft created the MS Excel v2.0 for windows in 1987, and started outselling Lotus 1-2-3 and the up-and-coming Quattro Pro in 1988.
