I’ve been a big Excel user for at least 30 years. I don’t think that I ever used SYLK files.

I went through a phase where I had to use SLYK files to overcome some technical obstacle (I can’t remember now, I recall it my have been the only way I could export out of one system and have it open properly in another, but it was a while back.)

SYLK started as a export file format from Multiplan, the text precursor to Excel. It's more than 30 years old; more like 38 years.

I don't understand how the exploit works. SYLK content is just raw text and doesn't contain macros.

Whats your fave website to learn to build non complex but multi sheet spreadsheets (not a total beginner but a little weak on functions).

Trying to do something on the lines of an inventory but with locations instead of items, plus other sheets to note attributes of each location, with the results of the attributes leading to a “score” for each location on a main report page.

Thanks in advance any advice.
