        That depends.

        Was it done in SuperCalc using hundreds of undocumented macros by a student in the summer holidays two years ago? (BBC)

        Does it contain macros that call macros that call macros that fetch data from other spreadsheets in other directories and update Word documents on another server that you're not allowed to see because they belong to a Director's secretary? (BT)

        Is it one of a set of hundreds of spreadsheets that have to be combined but have evolved over the years so there are over 20 different layouts? (MoD)

        Is each one password protected with a different password based upon the month in which it was last updated and which admin bod did the updating? (An asset management company)
