From the developer:

GenScriber is a transcription editor for genealogical, historical and other records.
The interface is comprised of several resizable windows within a single main window.
A register image can be viewed in the top window while data is input in the bottom window.

The problems associated with spreadsheets do not apply here. The worksheet is not a spreadsheet. It will not change dates or numerical input. All cell inputs are alphanumeric.
