TurboCALC - Sketching Spreadsheet Software

TurboCALC - Sketching Spreadsheet Software

TurboCALC - Sketching Spreadsheet Software

(OP)
Has anyone used a program called TurboCALC?
http://www.turbocad.com/TurboCAD/TurboCADWindows/Addons/TurboCALC/tabid/1699/Default.aspx

It has CAD tools for drawing, some calculation ability???, ability to link to an Excel spreadsheet and 2-way DXF transfer. It lists for $199, which looks a little steep to me. Does anyone use this program?

Could this program be used to provide "live" sketches to illustrate your engineering calculations?

RE: TurboCALC - Sketching Spreadsheet Software

SteveGregory - I checked out the website and noticed that they have free trials for the TurboCAD software packages.  Have you contacted a sales representative?  Maybe they can provide you with a demo.  You won't know unless you ask.

RE: TurboCALC - Sketching Spreadsheet Software

I have not used that specific TurboCad product - but I use TurboCAD everyday for drawing and it is fantastic!!

I could teach anyone to use it in about 15 - 30 minutes.  Auto Cad would take about 15 to 30 hours!!

A Google check shows that TurboCalc is a re-branded version of GrafiCalc from GEOMATE.
