First of all, I hope the test case document covers all related
characters, but it's not uncertain because I can't find any
specification of Excel's JIS and ASC function. I will ask other
Japanese contributors to find other characters that should be
supported by the functions.

Second, the implementation of Excel's JIS and ASC function is so
unclear that you may have some irrational problems. As to the
convertion of 0x0022 QUOTATION MARK, you should make your
implementation's result same as one of Excel.

Third, I looked over your modification and I found an error. While you
commented out some lines related to "katakana vu" in
lcl_convertIntoFullWidth, the corresponding lines in
lcl_convertIntoHalfWidth are not commented out. Originally this is my
fault :-p I'm sorry.
However, according to the explanation of ASC function in Excel's help
document, it should convert full width "katakana vu" into half
characters literally, but it doesn't do so in fact. This problem is
stated here (sorry I couldn't find the equivalent page written in
English):

Finally, I think the main purpose of these functions is to uniform the
character width and improve appearance of documents. However, some
people may have other purposes. Anyway, OOo should have these
functions to improve compatibility with MS-Office.
