------- Additional comments from oo...@openoffice.org Sun Sep 13 08:48:11 +0000 2009 ------- using the eg in guide [IT RICERCA = SEARCH]: RICERCA(54; 998877665544) yields 10; but then RICERCA(54; 998877665584) yields #VALORE! [ie #VALUE!) which is clearly wrong; the return value should be eg 0 or -1, not an argument error. This breaks functions like IF(SEACH(123;456);"found";"x") which neads to be rewritten in a clumsy form like eg IF(VAL.ERROR(SEACH(123;456));"x";"found") which anyway prevents direct use of the SEARCH return value in eg a formula. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
