Hi Martin, For many years I have been designing Excel spreadsheets on my Macintosh for use on the work PCs, and never had any problems. Mind you I had been using mainly Office X and on rare occasions Office 2004, but I understand that the latest version of Excel does not support VBA and Macros. Hence my suggestion would be to use an older version of Office for Mac which support VBA and Macros, if you use them extensively in your spreadsheets. If not I cannot see any problem.
I am sure others on the forum will help with more up to date information.
