Scripting? You mean like the VBScript crap? That may be true, but, IMO, if you're really using that, you're using the wrong tool anyway. If not, I'm pretty sure that Calc supports all of the functions that Excel supports natively. The only real incompatibility I've seen is that Excel will accept either commas or semicolons as delimiters for function arguments, and Calc only supports semicolons. Or something like that.

Maybe scripting is the wrong term, probably mean macros. VBA vs OO's Basic. After dorking around with it for a bit, the Calc one seemed a lot more limited. That could've just been inexperience on my part, though.

What kind of integration are you wanting? Because I don't think I want any.

I have one program that reads in data from a simulation, calculates a bunch of metrics I need, spits out a bunch of graphs and charts to a presentation and fills in a skeleton form of a report. That kind of integration.
