------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Feb 20 17:27:55 +0000 2008 ------- @philhibbs "OOo does not and should not have emulation of Excel bugs on its feature list." If the "bug" is needed to have the calculation result that Excel would perform, then absolutely OOo MUST do the same as Excel when opening an Excel spreadsheet. I'm just guessing that you never had Calc almost cost you $23,000.00. >From the http://www.openoffice.org/product/calc.html it states, "Of course, you are free to use your old Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, or save your work in Excel format for sending to people who are still locked into Microsoft products." This a malicious LIE! It should say, "Of course, you are free to use your old Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, or save your work in Excel format for sending to people who are still locked into Microsoft products AS LONG AS YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT HAVING THE CALCULATED RESULTS MATCH EXCEL. WE KNOW THAT CALCULATION IS THE WHOLE POINT OF A SPREADSHEET, BUT WE DON'T GIVE A SHIT." That would make a good DIGG headline that would be sure to make the top page coupled with my documented, legitimate story of OO calc nearly costing me $23,000 back in 2005. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
