Andrew, apparently, you never worked in a large company. Unless a CxO is a major
OpenOffice supporter or Microsoft hater, if you tell them to retrain users for
such an issue, the answer will be "you are fired for putting OpenOffice on our
computers in the first place. You should have bought MS Office all along!" Then
he'd write a memo putting OpenOffice on the banned-software list.

And he'd be right. A single incident of such a problem can easily cost far more
than a copy of MS Office for everybody.


In any case, training users is not an option for me.

Me lone consultant am not going to tell a multimillion dollar company to retrain
all their users AND to review every single Excel spreadsheet companywide
(because more often than not, users pass spreadsheets around and copy them,
rather than using templates) for an issue that 99% of the recipients never have
because they use Microsoft Office.

Me lone consultant WILL tell my customers that OpenOffice Calc is dangerous to
their bottom line.
