Abstract
Systems and methods for providing spreadsheet-formatted access to information stored within a hosted electronic notebook, in accordance with one or more implementations. Providing access to the hosted electronic notebook in a spreadsheet format may enhance usability for users who are more comfortable with a spreadsheet format, while still providing the features and functions of a stateful hosted electronic notebook. Providing access in the spreadsheet format may include presenting cell outputs of information cells within the hosted electronic notebook in an array with at least two dimensions. In other words, the information cells of the hosted electronic notebook may be organized and presented in the spreadsheet format to mimic at least some of the structure and function of a spreadsheet file that is stateful and hosted electronically.
