There's the famous one in the Analyst which allowed cells to contain things like images and rules to rotate them. But (I think) its ancient history now. You might find it in a port of the Analyst Georg Heeg made available a while back. I'd ask him.

For example code, search the list archives. I know Mark Guzdial
assigned a simple spreadsheet in Morphic as a team class assignment to his undergrads. I just tried digging through http://coweb.cc.gatech.edu/cs2340 And couldn't find it. Great commentary from frustrated students (trouble with Squeak) and happy students (liking Squeak).

Skeleton is available from SqueakMap

Karl/Frank,
Thanks for the pointer to Skeleton. It looks like a promising starting point for what I need.

It does look interesting. But it doesn't seem to be available via SqueakMap. Anyone had any luck downloading it? John

It's there (that's how I got it)... are you sure you're not filtering it
out? It appears to be a somewhat dated package and suffers from some bit-rot (doesn't appear to work on the current release or even the 3.7 image I downloaded which it was released for.) Unless someone else has already done so, I was going to take a look and see if I can get it working again. Thanks, Phil John Richards wrote: > > It does look interesting.

The Analyst is not legally available at the moment (which is a pity, since it was a great piece of software at its time). We once considered buying the rights to it, but the price tag was a bit steep... I have started implementing a simple spreadsheet in Squeak a while back. Like almost all of my toy projects, this never got finished but does have some usable code (see attached ZIP file.) Open a new spreadsheet with "SpreadsheetGridMorph new openInWorld". You can enter numbers into the cells, and you may enter rules (start with "=", cell refs are written as A1, B1 etc). Currently implemented are +-*/ operations. The update machinery (which is the heart of a spreadsheet) works nicely. Everything else is just "boring work to do" :-) Cheers, Hans-Martin Spreadsheet.zip (13K) Download Attachment |

You are correct... I was attempting to use it via 'new morph...' rather
than the 'objects' menu option which does work correctly. Edgar J.

Thanks for the clarification re: Analyst as well as your work. This
gives me another possible starting point.
