History of excel.

  • excel 1.0

    excel 1.0 The first version of Excel was released exclusively for the Mac. This is still unknown to many Excel enthusiasts and may seem a bit strange. Microsoft had developed an earlier spreadsheet program called Multiplan in 1982, which was not successful. Until 2016, versions of Excel for different operating systems had different names.

  • Excel 2.0

    Excel 2.0
    Excel 2.0 The first version of Microsoft Excel for Windows was labeled "2" to correspond to the Mac version. It included a Windows runtime version and was actually a Mac port "Excel 2".
  • Excel 3.0

    Excel 3.0
    Excel 3.0 The next version added toolbars, drawing capabilities, outlines, add-in support, 3D charts, and many more new features.
  • Excel 4.0

    Excel 4.0 Version 4 of Excel marked the first "popular" version. It included many usability features, such as AutoComplete, which was first introduced in this version.
  • Excel 5.0

    Excel 5.0 Version 5 of Excel marked a major update. It included workbooks with multiple worksheets and support for VisualBasic and Macros. These new features made Excel more vulnerable to macro virus attacks, which is something that will continue to be a problem until version 2007.
  • Excel 7.0

    Known as Excel 95, it marked the first major 32-bit version of Excel. Excel 5 also had a 32-bit version, however due to distribution flaws it was not widely used. Feature-wise, Excel 95 is very similar to Excel 5. You may also wonder why there is no Excel 6. Starting with Excel 7, all Microsoft Office applications implemented the same version number, and therefore it was changed the version numbering.
  • Excel 97 (8.0)

    This version featured a new Visual Basic developer interface, UserForms, data validation, and much more. Do you remember Clippy, the annoying office assistant? He was also part of this version.
  • Excel 2000 (9.0)

    New features include the use of HTML as the native file format, a "self-healing" capability, an improved clipboard, dynamic graphics, and modeless user forms.
  • Excel XP (10.0)

    This is the first Excel to be part of Office XP. The long list of added features didn't bring much value to the average user. One of the biggest features was the new feature that allows you to recover your work in case Excel crashes.
  • Excel 2003 (11.0)

    New features included in this release were improved support for XML, a new "list range" feature, smart tag enhancements, and fixed statistical functions. Most users will not find the data-related upgrade worthwhile.
  • Excel 2007 (12.0)

    This version of Windows marked some important changes to Excel. These were the introduction of the Ribbon interface, along with the change of the file format from .xls to the now familiar
  • Excel 2010 (14.0)

    New features in this version of Excel include Sparkline Charts, PivotTable Dividers, an updated Solver, and a 64-bit version. You might be wondering why Microsoft decided to skip version 13 and go straight with 14; this is because 13 is considered an unlucky number
  • Excel 2013 (15.0)

    This release marked the arrival of over 50 new features, as well as the newly introduced single document interface, recommended charts and pivot tables, and new charting enhancements.
  • Excel 2016 (16.0)

    Despite being different versions of the software, Excel for Mac and Windows have since passed under the same name. In case you also have an Office 365 subscription, there are special Internet updates available for your Excel, which can significantly change your user experience. Older versions and those purchased at retail therefore face a disadvantage.
  • Excel 2019 (17.0)

    It has all the features that earlier versions of Excel have and more. One of the most notable new additions is the new charts, which put a new spin on data presentation. Map charts and funnel charts are just a few of the new data presentation charts that make your data look neat and tidy. You also have the opportunity to include 3D images in your workbooks.
  • Excel 2021 (18.0)

    Functions developed in the Microsoft 365 program are integrated, XLOOKUP function - helps find things in a table or range by row in an Excel spreadsheet, LET - allows you to assign names to calculation results, XMATCH - finds an item in a array or range of cells.
