 Examples
of what goes wrong with Spreadsheets in Mining
|
|
|
Below are stories relating to spreadsheet errors found
in mining. Remember also, that these are the published stories only. We know of many
other that cannot be published, and it would surprise us if any large
organisation could claim to never having a spreadsheet error in the years
they have been operating. |
If you already know that spreadsheet errors are an issue, then why not
see how a tool like Spreadsheet Professional can assist you. See more on
the Spreadsheet Professional pages.
