(note, locale is it_IT)

according to the guide, this formula should work:

 =CELLA(contents;INDIRIZZO(1;2*(RIF.RIGA()-1);1;1;Foglio1))

ie in EN

 =CELL(contents;ADDRESS(1;2*(RIF.ROW()-1);1;1;Sheet1))

as it does work in INDIRETTO() (EN: INDIRECT() ):

 =INDIRETTO(INDIRIZZO(1;2*(RIF.RIGA()-1);1;1;Foglio1))

as both function expect a cell ref as text; eg if the above ADDRESS() returns
Sheet1.$B$3 then INDIRECT(ADDRESS(...)) will work like manually writing in
the cell ref, ie INDIRECT(Sheet1.$B$3), whereas CELL(..., ADDRESS(...)) yields
an error #REF! and CELL(..., Sheet1.$B$1) does work.

Looking at the docs and function tips I don't see any error in function
usage, thus it looks like a bug in CELL().

I was using 2.4 in Linux, thought it's a bug fixed in 3.x then checked latest
3.1 in XP but with same results.

thx

Please attach a document with all that formulas. Then I can open it an English
version; the function names will be translated then.

You know, that the second parameter of CELL must be a reference, but ADDRESS
returns a text?

 You know, that the second parameter of CELL must be a reference, but ADDRESS
 returns a text?

indeed - ack.
Well, terms used in function wizard and help are the same (Riferimento =
Reference), rather confusiong IMHO. 
Re-checking, eventually maybe I got it right: (in a cell) 
  =INDIRECT(ADDRESS(...))
is equivalent to 
  =CELL(contents; INDIRECT(ADDRESS(...)))
the point is, that help/wizard say that INDIRECT() returns the *contents* of 
the cell, whereas it actually returns the *reference* to the cell.

So the bug seems to be poor/bad wording in docs - to my understanding, of
course.
I suggest to make it clearer in the f.wizard, with labels like
  Reference:
and
  Reference (as text):
in due cases.

thx 
(test .odf seems unneeded at this point, though I'm attaching it anyway)
