<p>A computer program product for use in conjunction with a spreadsheet application program comprises a framework having a library of defined functions. The spreadsheet application is, in use, executed in a first process in memory on a computer and the function is, in use, held in a second process, which second process is independent of the first process. The or each user defined function is adapted to be called from a cell in the spreadsheet application, the function being evaluated or executed in the second process to return a value which is shown in the cell. This reduces the memory footprint of the application and results in a more stable computer system.</p> |
