The latest version of Labtronics’ Nexxis Electronic Laboratory Notebook (ELN) has support for Microsoft Office, including Word, PowerPoint and Excel. Nexxis ELN uses ReDI technology to configure ELN worksheets quickly and with version 5.05, ReDI now provides full support for the Office suite of products. Fully functional Microsoft products can be embedded directly into ELN worksheets.
Customers with existing Excel spreadsheets can deploy ELN faster by using the files they already have. Alternatively, they can develop new Excel spreadsheets and embed them into ELN worksheets to make use of the functionality found in Excel, such as macros, graphics and complex calculations. Data can be transparently exchanged between Excel and the ELN worksheet.
Microsoft Word can also be embedded into Nexxis ELN worksheets, creating a rich environment for developing complex reports. All of the functionality in Word is supported by Nexxis ELN, and PowerPoint users can embed training slide shows and videos into their ELN worksheets, eliminating the need to open separate training material. An alternative to native ELN capabilities for displaying graphics is provided by PowerPoint, and a complete slide show containing pictures of samples can appear on a single ELN page.
