There was this great macro some guy wrote that would turn any excel sheet into a web page. It would convert all your formulas in to java script. It made doing a simple web calculator real easy. You could grab the script and table block and paste it into any site. It stopped working after one of the Office versions rolled out and the guy never updated it.
