In all fairness there is a huge difference betwen using a word processor and a spreadsheet for many similar tasks. The table function in writer can resemble a spreadsheet, but ,as your client mentioned, the spreadsheet has a different view (sheets) than the one page view of a word processor. I do the same, use writer & tables instead of a spreadsheet for my business forms, faster, easier, better formatting options.
