They should not look the same. A spreadsheet is a matrix used, generally, for calculations and mathematical solutions.


A database is used to store data in a categorical way. This enables the retrieval of such data according to your search criteria.


Google is a database. Enter what you are looking for and it will find every entry in the database that contains your search criteria.
