------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Mar 1 18:35:15 +0000 2008 ------- As mentioned earlier, I thought that a spreadsheet with the Excel empty cell behaviour would be useful to help us all check specifically for interoperability issues. I attach an OOo calc sheet with the observed behaviour of Excel embodied in the 'expectation' cells. The sheet is just the 32340 test case altered to 'expect' the Excel behaviour I've observed. Cells in this sheet will display 'ok' if the OOo version behaves like Excel does, or will display 'ERR' if OOo behaviour differs from Excel. It is possible that MS Excel behaviour differs in different versions. This attachment is based on the behaviour in Excel 97. Hopefully we can at least use it as a starting point. I have a colleague with a later Excel version, and I will check whether the behaviour differs in the later version. I'm particularly keen to focus on solving any residual interoperating problems because I'd like to switch to OOo in our technical work. Since our customers, and our existing models, use Excel, interoperability problems in any commonly encountered constructions means that we cannot easily migrate, let alone interest our clients in doing so. But that's just a bit of background. Thanks for reading the note, and I hope the attachment is helpful. regards, Ron --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
