FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
San Francisco, CA - November 9, 2006 - Today, Extentech Inc., a leading developer of Java components and development tools, released ExtenXL™ 5, the latest version of the powerful and scalable solution for automating Excel-compatible spreadsheets with live data from any source. This latest version incorporates dozens of new features and improvements made in direct response to customer requests. New features include improved CellBinder? automations, WorkBook versioning which allows storing of diffs between workbook versions and rolling changes back and forward, and innovations such as R3S? (Really Simple Spreadsheet Syndication) technology which enables users to subscribe to realtime data in calculated Cells using a flavor of RSS.
"With more than 80 new formula functions, 30% faster formula execution, and additional spreadsheet automations such as conditional formatting, merged ranges, and improved Chart automation, ExtenXLS? 5.0 is a compelling upgrade based on improvements to existing functionality alone," states John McMahon, CEO of Extentech Inc.

With a Web-enabled API, developers can now implement powerful features including spreadsheet change tracking and distributed collaboration in minutes just by calling simple Java methods. With the ability to share spreadsheets from within your Java applications to the Sheetster.com web site, your ExtenXLS? programs can allow for distributed collaboration, versioning, and access control with no additional effort."
Former OfficeWriter for Java customers will find an easy competitive upgrade path to ExtenXLS with the new ExcelWriter Compatibility API which allows for the use of OfficeWriter templates in ExtenXLS with no additional modifications needed.
In coordination with this launch, Extentech is re-committing itself to its customer-focused philosophy.
