Microsoft Excel on the other hand is a spreadsheet program, it is usually used to display data and work out calculations in the form of tables and graphs, it also has a more integrated use of macros. So basically, Access stores data, Excel calculates and displays data.   ANS2:Access creates relational databases.
Q: Excel equivalent for Mac OS/X? Is there a similar database program for Mac like Microsh*t Excel? If anyone can point me in the right direction, they'll have this question solved! Excel is a spreadsheet, and exists in a Mac version (in fact, the Mac version predates the Windows version). Do you instead mean Microsoft Access? If so, there's no direct equivalent, but there are a number of Mac databases, including Filemaker Pro (probably the most popular), OpenBase, MySQL, FrontBase and others.
