Fun with SQL inside Excel

I've built a plugin for Excel that lets you use SQL inside Excel. Here are two demo/tutorial videos I've made: Damo 1 -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ld-mbyAGsow Damo 2 -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vjlEd2-bJQ The website is here: http://thingiequery.com/ I've already posted about it a week ago, but kinda clumsily so this is a repost (it says in the guide that an occasional repost is fine, so here's one). This is the original post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9359128 And here is a Reddit thread on the plugin:…

I've built a plugin for Excel that lets you use SQL inside Excel. Here are two demo/tutorial videos I've made: Damo 1 -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ld-mbyAGsow Damo 2 -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vjlEd2-bJQ The website is here: http://thingiequery.com/ I've already posted about it a week ago, but kinda clumsily so this is a repost (it says in the guide that an occasional repost is fine, so here's one). This is the original post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9359128 And here is a Reddit thread on the plugin: http://www.reddit.com/r/excel/comments/2wv52m/ive_built_an_excel_plugin_for_using_sql_in_excel/ If you spend time in Excel and are familiar with SQL, have a look-see, I'm sure you'll love it:)

    I've built a C# IDE, Runtime, and AppStore inside Excel2023 · querystorm.com · ▲670

    The project is called QueryStorm. It uses Roslyn to offer C# (and VB.NET) support in Excel, as an alternative to VBA. I've posted about it before, but a lot has changed since then so figured I'd share an update. The current version includes a host of new features, namely a C# debugger, support for NuGet packages, and the ability to publish Excel extensions to an "AppStore" (which is essentially a NuGet repository). The AppStore can be used by anyone with the (free) runtime component. Another great addition is the community license, which is a free license for individuals and small companies…
