ABSTRACT:
A method and data structure that allows a user to view a spreadsheet in a “calculator” mode, wherein certain cells are non-editable. The calculator designer/creator can alter the default as to which cells are editable when the calculator is displayed in the calculator preview mode. Once the designer/creator made all modifications in the calculator preview mode, the user can change the cell values in the calculator mode based on the adjustments made in the calculator preview mode. The invention further allows the user to embed the calculator in any web page, to email a link to the calculator, and to open and save the calculator.
