OpenOffice treats it as a zero regardless of the actual value. Example: B12: 8 E12: =IF(B125,$59.99,IF(B1215,$49.99)) F12: 1.99 G12: 1.5 M12: =SUM((E12+F12+G12)+(E12+F12+G12)*0.069)*B12 (all cells except B12 formatted as currency) In this scenario, Excel will display: B12 | ... | E12 | F12 | G12 | | M12 8 ... | $49.99 | $1.99 | $1.50 | | $457.36 OpenOffice will display 8 ... $49.99 $1.99 $1.50 $29.85 This is similar to bug 6768, which I believe should not have been closed. Regardless of whether Excel's behavior is philosophically logical or correct, when OpenOffice yields different mathematical results than Excel, that undermines trust in OpenOffice. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
