Hi,

I've recently been debugging an ods file that looked like printing wrong formula
results, which were completely unexplainable.
It turned out that due to copy&paste as well as in&export to xls, there were two
different entries with the same name each: one as a database range and one as a
named range. The user expected the database range to be used in the formula and
didn't even know the feature "named range", but as even deleting and recreating
a database range did not help, he supposed openoffice to be broken.

That's why I'd like OpenOffice to complain if there are ambiguous entries in a
formula. Alternatively it could complain if there are a named range and a
database range with the same name and prevent their creation.
