The original SpreadsheetML specification was created for Excel 2003, but did not support all features in Excel. NebulaXLite, as the name implies, is a product which is intended to support just a limited subset of Excel functionality, and a subset of the SpreadsheetML spec itself. NebulaXLite includes features which are useful to the majority of Excel document consumers, with a commensurately simple BASIC interface to make it easy for developers to use. NebulaXLite does not support many advanced features of Excel 2003 or Excel 2007 (Office 12) including: charts and graphs pivot tables Office Open XML macros, templates, or add-ins Enhancements made to NebulaXLite will include features that are both requested by licensed users, and within the capabilities of SpreadsheetML for Excel 2003. Support for Excel 2007 will be driven by significant demand.
