Microsoft Excel version 4.0 includes an add-in function named BASE() which
accepts input for a base 10 number and a number designating the base to
which it should be converted. BASE() outputs a text string representation
of the number in that base. For example, BASE() converts the number 5 in
base 10 to the string 101 if you request base 2.
Microsoft Excel versions 5.0 and later do not include the BASE() function.
When you open a workbook in Microsoft Excel version 5.0 or later, you
receive a "#NAME" error in the cells that contain the BASE() function.
