Notable difference between Excel 2003 and Excel 2007

Howdy all,

Yesterday I happen to copy 1 lakh
rows from Sql table to Excel for data validation, interestingly I couldn’t
find rows after 65536 ( I knew excel supports only 2^16 rows, brushing aside this,
I declared looping variable to 1 Lk and end up with wasting time in debugging.
So decided to post about excel 2003 capability and 2007 solution for this.

Feature                                                                 Excel
2003           |               Excel 2007

Maximum columns                                             256  
                      |               16 Thousand

Maximum rows                                                    64
Thousand        |               1 Million

Max number of function arg                              30                           |
              255

Formula Length                                   1 Thousand          |
              8 Thousand char

No. of levels of nesting -formulas    7 
                            |               64

Gudoss
to MS Excel Team for pushing the Excel 2007 to a maximum level

Apple Safari on Windows

One more browser(Apple, Safari 3 beta for windows) to heat up the browser war,
I guess its really tough time for IE Team as well as for testing professionals,
Yes now they have to cross test the page additionally in Safari too. According
to Apple’s page, here is the list of features Blazing Performance, Elegant User
Interface,Easy Bookmarks ,Pop-up Blocking ,Inline Find ,Tabbed Browsing ,SnapBack
,Forms AutoFill,Built-in RSS,Resizable Text Fields ,Private Browsing ,Security etc.
Get your copy here :
http://www.apple.com/safari
and http://www.apple.com/safari/download/

      Apple
claims their browser is up to
twice as fast as the
competition, and the public beta of Safari 3 is being released as a free
download for Mac OS X, Windows XP and Windows Vista.

+ Pros

 Page looks brittle and soft , UI,
really like the alert box poping out from url bar, URL bar itself act as a
status bar-..cool idea

– Cons

 doesn’t have any add-ons like
FF , Startup time is slow

Who were you in your last life?

To know the answer, just
type in the date when you were born in your present life.
http://www.thebigview.com/pastlife/index.html
, I’m wondering how people are creative in thinking. Here is my past life
diagnosis,

Your past life diagnosis:

(1)
I don’t know how you feel about it, but you were male in your last earthly
incarnation.You were born somewhere in the territory of modern France around
the year 850. Your profession was that of a seaman, cook or carpenter.

(2)
Bohemian personality, mysterious, highly gifted, capable to understand ancient
books. With a magician’s abilities, you could have been a servant of dark
forces.

The
lesson that your last past life brought to your present incarnation:

(3) Your task is to learn, to love and to trust the universe. You are bound to
think, study, reflect, and to develop inner wisdom.

I like the last line of
my diagnosis
J especially. May be this is true. What you say. Try out and
let me know if you get something interesting like this …he hee..
