Hello,

If conformance with Excel is desired, then perhaps it should (work with text)?

I have included an Excel spreadsheet, "ex58589.xls" which, under Excel, returns incremented times of day in the A col when B is a duration value and C is a concatenate formula. Under Open Office calc, (Open Office 2.0) it does not. The times of day remain unchanged.

the real sheet looks something like this (C is not visible)
    A       B       D
4  9:30    5      Meeting Agenda
5  9:35    10    Functional Overview
6  9:45    20    Tech Overview

and the sample sheet I sent you looks like this.

    A                          B              C
........
4   9:30                       5      CONCATENATE("00:", B3,":00")
5   9:35  (=A4+C4)      10     CONCATENATE("00:", B4,":00")
6  9:46   (=A5+C5)      15     CONCATENATE("00:", B5,":00")


thanks

Hi,

Calc does not calculate with text, as you've told us, you use the CONCATENATE function to get the result. This function produces text and therefore it seems
to me that the calculation you want to do fails.

It would be fine if you can attach a document showing the problem.

Thanks Frank
