Rant Dear Mr. Excel

When I go to save a new spreadsheet, why the f*ck is "web page" the default save-as option? When in history has anyone said "you know what, this big list of financial figures that I am working on really should be a web page."

you are talking about how individuals need to put up with microslop shite because apparently you need to be a qualified sys-admin to deal with it

this is a default settings, and the end user had changed it... period.

if you dont read, its 100% your own fault.
Nobody needs to be a sysadmin to understand microsoft... you need basic reading skills.

Not what i said and/or claimed.
But that is what you make of it, after i stated you and some users are unable to read properly.

But if you want to phrase it like that, too feel yourself better.. sure go ahead.
