I just noticed this morning that Caseware Analytics have a new white paper entitled: Driving Better Data Analysis: Moving Beyond Spreadsheets, it compares using a spreadsheet with using IDEA. Good read for anyone wondering why they would use IDEA instead of Excel. (http://www.casewareanalytics.com/sites/default/files/whitepapers/caseware_analytics_driving_better_data_analysis_web.pdf)
