1. Excel-Based Solutions For Large Data Systems by Douglas M. Smith / Abundant Solutions Data can be extracted from large data systems (mainframe, AS/400, Oracle, Axapta, etc.) and imported into Excel for further consolidation and manipulation. Excel-based applications can seamlessly import the data, and provide end users with powerful tools for analysis, summarization and reporting. These tools will be completely customized to meet the user’s needs and will be easily maintainable. The interface will be graphically oriented and will require little, if any, data entry by the user. Examples of Excel-based applications are shown on subsequent pages. These applications can also work as standalone products or can import data from other systems and sources.
