What else can Excel not do?

Submitted by spartan27 on 26 November, 2014 - 04:42.

What else can Excel not do? I'm vary curious because it is so widely used and well known all around the world. In my mind it does just about anything you would ever need for a data base or spreadsheet of any kind, but I know there has to be a series of functions that excel is not able to do.

Thank you

... if you do come up with a list of things Excel cannot do, I'd be interested to see it, as you may find out that it can do them...

... agreed, you cannot edit pictures or make coffee
