Do you often use a desktop calculator on your workplace next to your computer Or do you simply bored with standard Windows calculator come along with your system Well then, powerful and easy-to-use desktop calculator software is just for you! Don't need to find it here and there. Here I will recommend a desktop calculator utility to you. That is ActiCalc. Following is the general introduction of this easy-to-use general-purpose desktop calculator.

ActiCalc is an easy-to-use general-purpose desktop calculator. Unlike most calculator programs, it provides a visual calculation "tape" that records all calculations and permits entries to be updated. This tape is tightly integrated with Microsoft Excel to permit simple calculation sequences to seamlessly evolve into complex spreadsheets. For simple tasks, this is the easiest, quickest way to build Excel spreadsheets. ActiCalc is both a freeware and shareware program. We can download the program from many shareware index sites and immediately use all of its basic features.

Following are some key functions and benefits of this desktop calculator, including:

ActiCalc remembers the most recently saved files and allows us to recall these calculations with the click of a button. We can organize our most common calculations into separate TAC files and quickly "bounce" between these calculations sequences with this handy new feature.

1. ActiCalc adds a small mode button on toolbar. When we click the button, the ActiCalc window shrinks to a size just large enough to show the small data entry/results window. Also, at that point, ActiCalc stays on top of other applications so we can continue calculating as we work with our applications. Click the button again and ActiCalc returns to the full size, and the tape shows a complete record of our calculations.

2. When we are using "adding machine" mode, ActiCalc is permissible to press the decimal key instead of entering all zeroes for decimals.

3. International users can configure their keyboard to work properly regardless of what style keyboard is used.

4. The IntelliDoc feature lets us add comments to the tape as we are entering normal calculations. Simply type any alpha characters and they will automatically be inserted as comments.

5. The help file of ActiCalc is completely reworked providing comprehensive documentation and numerous examples. All users should spend a few minutes with the tutorial.

6. ActiCalc provides a new function tab that includes the most common financial functions. These functions have the same single-click style as the general memory registers.

7. ActiCalc automatically registers its file types so we can launch a previously saved calculation file by double-clicking within Explorer.

8. Precision box allows us to round balances to 0-6 decimal digits, or to float the result. If we select precision matching our local currency, entries and balances are shown with "pennies".

9. Multiple independent sets of calculations can be stacked on the tape, and linkages among calculations can be established with a single mouse click.

10. With ActiCalc we can make an "active reference" to any previous balance on the tape. Whenever this balance changes, the referencing entry will change accordingly. This effectively gives us an infinite number of memory registers.

11. ActiCalc allows us to export the tape to Excel with a single mouse click so we can easily extend and reformat our ActiCalc work. The resulting Excel spreadsheet embodies all the relationships and calculations as originally built on the ActiCalc tape. This powerful feature allows Excel novices to build sophisticated spreadsheets like a pro.

12. Insert File function adds saved calculations to the current tape. If we already have entries on the tape, this function merges the saved calculations with the current ones.

Other useful and handy functions include: 12 of the most common scientific functions. Add or delete any row on the tape. Quickly recall any numeric item from the tape with a single mouse click. Tip-of-the-day function makes it easy to learn ActiCalc's advanced features. Unlimited number of rows in the IntelliTape. Move the cursor location to any point on the tape. Drag and drop a saved tape file into ActiCalc using Explorer or an equivalent file manager. Multiple tape files can be saved on disk, and you can quickly navigate back and forth through these saved tapes with a single mouse click.
