Empty cells are handled inconsistently and IMHO wrongly by the MIN, MAX, MINA
and MAXA functions. E.g. MIN(empty cell;4) is 4, however MAX(empty cell;4) is
also 4 thus empty cells are both less than and more than 4.

mina treats empty cells differently to cells containing strings, i.e. mina(empty
cell; 4) is 4 while mina(cell with string in it; 4) is zero

Functions like sum treat empty cells as zero, so should min, max, mina, maxa and
any other functions which compare numeric values in cells.

I will attach a sample spreadsheet if allowed to do so.

This has been observed on Fedora core 3 (OOo 1.1.3) and Mac OS (Neooffice - OOo
1.1.4)
