You're not really challenged until the growth rate of their Excel monster outpaces the rate at which you automate the existing stuff... thankfully Excel has a 1 million row limit, and it always takes them time to figure out how to shard an Excel database :P

Well in this case it's actually mine and the rest of the finance group's Excel monsters (plural) that are being automated. The devs are doing yeoman's work.
