Abstract
A method of accessing and manipulating Resource Description Framework (RDF) data stores using a spreadsheet application user interface. Data store queries can be performed on the data store by submitting queries inside cells and written in SPARQL. The record sets resulting from SPARQL queries are stored with the cells which contained the original query so that cells can be multi-valued. Cell referencing allows the data in multi-value cells to be accessed.
