Yeah tbh I am shocked trace precedents / dependents is not native to Excel
Arixcel. Cheap but more useful than competitors.
Macabacus and CapIQ plugin both work well for this
Try using Anthropic or one of the LLMs to create a custom excel VBA macro. For specific functionality like CapIQ tracing, you should be able to create this in a matter of minutes.
interesting, have you ever tried? I think it should be pretty easy on pc's resources in this way
Not that functionality specifically, but I did use Grok to create some PowerPoint add ons. It may take some iteration.
