In 2020 scientists renamed 27 human genes because Microsoft Excel kept auto-converting their names into dates, causing widespread errors in published genetic research
Gene symbols like SEPT1 and MARCH1 were automatically turned into dates (e.g., “Sep-01,” “Mar-01”) when opened in Excel. These mistakes showed up in supplementary data and even peer-reviewed papers.

One of my biggest problems when working with #LibreOffice Calc (compared to #Microsoft #Excel) is that some software outputs data as Excel files where numbers are displayed as decimals. These files contain numbers that, when opened in LibreOffice, are shown only as decimals, and options like **Format Cells** or converting the cell data to numbers have no effect. You can’t even increase or decrease the number of decimal places. /1

The weirdest one of these I saw used Access for the GUI, but used the Excel ODBC connector and so the database app was just a GUI and the data was stored in a spreadsheet. This let people edit the data directly in the tables without knowing any SQL, or go through a workflow-based UI.
I didn't know such thing can be done. If people only need to change data on tables, they can use the form in Excel to do just that. But a form per table.
Using Access as an Excel frontend is such a weird and interesting idea.
Will give it a try soon.
