Not really, you got the options mixed up ;-) Following your wording it should be something like If you have set "Conversion from text to number" to either "Generate #VALUE! error" or "Treat as zero", you cannot choose (here) if conversion of an empty string to a number will generate an error or if it will treat empty strings as zero. Otherwise this option determines how empty strings are treated. Are we good with that? Eike -- LibreOffice Calc developer. Number formatter stricken i18n transpositionizer.
