* LibreOffice 3.3.0.4:

Worksheet name / label shown by Calc:
sheet1 1

 (please note it is all lower-case, and it adds an extra space and an extra
number 1)

_ Error:
Err:504 (Error in parameter list, "IllegalParameter" )

In the formula, the imported sheet name is replaced by "#REF!" ; the cell
addresses are shown correctly:

 $#REF!.$B$3:$B$4

Please note the presence of the initial "$", and the dot separator before the
cell addresses.


* LibreOffice 4.0.0.3

Same as LO 3.3.0.4, except that in the formula, the imported address is shown
as:
 sheet1!$b$3:$b$4

Note that there is no replacement for "#REF!" this time, but there is also no
conversion from "sheet1!" (with the "!" symbol, Excel's notation for worksheet
name address) to Calc's notation "$sheet1." (with the initial "$" for absolute
worksheet address and the dot as separator instead of the "!" symbol). The cell
addresses are not in uppercase, so Calc is not correctly importing the original
(full) address in Excel's notation format. Calc does not recognize the original
as a valid address, and thus there is no conversion to Calc's notation.


For some reason, the name / label of the worksheet is incorrectly imported by
Calc, changing it by adding an extra " 1" (a space character and a one, the
same as with LO 3.3).



* LO Dev 26.8 (2026-02-16):

In a recent LO Dev, the same as for LO 4.0 happens except that the worksheet
name / label is not just with an extra " 1" (as it was in LO 3.3, which was
also not correctly imported), but with an extra " -1" (space character, then
hyphen-minus character, then a one): "sheet1 -1".

The importing problem seems to be (at least partially) inherited (in name /
label of the worksheet), but the current behavior (for incorrect importing of
the worksheet name / label, and for the resulting incorrect behavior in the
formula) is already slightly different than in LO 3.3.


The problem is how Calc is importing the name / label of the worksheet (which,
in addition, seems to be different than how it is parsed for the formula).
