I think Excel refers to it as a “Web Method” (I think..it’s been a while).  For a former employer I used that feature to import the companies stock price.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Yes, Excel does let you grab data from the Web, and I&#039;ve actually used that before. It could be tedious to work with though on some websites, and like Google&#039;s importHTML function it pretty much requires that the website use tables to store the data.</description>

		<description>&lt;div class=&quot;commentquote&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-139175&quot;&gt;fred zhang wrote:&lt;/a&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Data Sort, lol are you kidding. You really don’t know Office or even Excel.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
We realize that you can manually sort data in Excel, but what function in Office will automatically resort data for you without using any VBA? If I&#039;m missing something, I&#039;d love to know. I&#039;m not sure if you read the section on Data Sort and how it works in Google Docs, but with my extensive experience using Excel, I&#039;ve never found a feature that works like this.
&lt;div class=&quot;commentquote&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-139177&quot;&gt;Steve wrote:&lt;/a&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Hehe, and how many features exists in MS Office, you won’t find in Google Spreadsheet? I think, 5 would not be engogh…  :roll:&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
That&#039;s true, but from a usability standpoint, not many people are going to use a majority of the features found in Office. The functions we mentioned today found in Google Docs are ones that a majority of users could use -- they try to appeal to the masses.</description>

		<description>I think the issue with Excel is that there are so many features that it takes a true pro to really understand all of what it offers.

When Microsoft was planning for Office 2007 their research found that 90% of the features that people wanted already existed! That&#039;s what lead to the overhaul of the toolbar and the reason the ribbon was developed.</description>

		<description>Google have a few very good functions which Excel don&#039;t have. I have help many people over the years in different forums how to do automatic sorting, finding unique numbers etc. Many of those questions involve long and complicated Array formulas (Ctrl+Shift+Enter). So I like Googles new functions and I hope Excel will follow. 

A few online spreadsheets offer more formulas than Microsoft. I made a comparison a year ago. Here was the result:
