Un full de càlcul mostra totes les línies i columnes de la taula, cosa que és molesta en cas de fulls molt llargs. Podeu, és clar, filtrar i ordenar línies amb un full de dades, però heu de ser molt cuidadós fent- ho. Els usuaris de fulls de càlcul s' exposen a oblidar que la vista de dades s' ha filtrat, el que pot portar a errades. Per exemple, quan es calculen sumes, podeu pensar que teniu 100 files de dades mentre que n' hi ha 20 amagades.
A spreadsheet displays all rows and columns of the table which is bothersome in case of very large data sheets. You may of course filter and sort rows in spreadsheets, however you must be extra careful while doing so. Spreadsheet users are in risk of forgetting that their data view has been filtered what can lead to mistakes. For example, while calculating sums you may think you have 100 rows of data while in fact there are 20 rows more hidden.
