Professional vs Standard Edition
As of version 4, there are two editions of SpreadsheetConverter, standard and professional
The Professional Edition allows you to redistribute your webpage outsite your own organization, it supports more functions, and more chart types. It also includes a 6-month license for the Advanced Submit Service, a form-to-Inbox service that e-mails all submitted forms directly to your Inbox or saves them in a database. The email looks just like the web form the visitor filled in.
The Standard Edition supports almost many functions, even advanced functions like PMT and VLOOKUP. It supports pie, bar and column charts.

1)Non-programmers might need help when installing the generated ASP.NET or Java/JSP pages on their web server.
2)If you use version 4, charts are not supported if you use Excel 2007. You need to use Excel 2003 to get charts. Charts are only supported on HTML-pages. For version 5, charts are supported both for HTML and ASP.NET and for all Excel versions.
