Visualise the structure of a spreadsheet

hmm, what's wrong with uploading it? I would actually prefer the no-Addin solution: the Excel Addin 'deployment' is a bit messy (with references stuck in the Addin-manager) + no Addins in the Mac world (though I guess that >95% of Excel users are on windows)

Would you expect a financially sensitive document of a company to be uploaded on a third party site?

We were definitely pursuing the add-on route. Although add-ons can be clunky we felt people would want to switch between the two views quickly and often. For example, if you make a change in the spreadsheet view you might want to see what effect that had on the tree. What do you think?

Dual-view, in two windows.

Also, uploading would make it an instant non-starter for me, due to data sensitivity issues.

hmm, guess I got a bit ahead of myself - you are right, you wouldn't want to switch views/apps as you would indeed expect people to use it in quite a dynamic way. really looking forward to it!
