Hack: skip reference updates for inter-document clipboard paste

This hack fixes the bug for me. By not performing reference updates when it's
an inter-document paste (the "pCBFCP->pClipDoc->GetClipParam().getSourceDocID()
== GetDocumentID()" is false), the reference stays correct instead of
referencing the pasted cell. However I am not sure how reference updates work
in general - the ScDocument::UpdateReference() function seems to do a lot,
affecting chart references, area links, validation lists, etc. - so I am not
sure what else could break...

Can somebody more familiar with Calc's internals please weigh in on whether
this approach is right?

Hi all at Open office
I have been using office 2007 for some time, but would like to use your
softwatre in future.
I am having trouble with the spreadsheets, as I can't get Jaws to read what
is in the cells!
Is there a fix for this? Or am I doing some thing wrong?
Many thanks

Linked fomulas to other xls spreadsheets stopped working

2014-05-25 Thread Diana Lockie
Hi there,
 
I have been using your OpenOffice for many years now and I always save my files 
as XLS format.  I have link formulas between weeksheets and they worked OK in 
the past.  Today when I open my files and accept the update links prompt from 
the file that contains the links, my links now show the #Ref errors.  I tried 
creating the link again but it doesn't work except if my link is to a cell that 
contains text, if the cell contains formula, no longer works.
 
I down loaded your newest version 4.1, repeated all the steps and same thing 
happens.  I then tried saving the source file as the ods format and update the 
links, keeping the target file as Xls format, that seems to fix the issue.  I 
then tried to change the source file back to Xls and update the links, same 
issue occurred.
 
Is this a bug?  
 
I have Window Vista.  If you need more info, please let me know.  Please look 
into this.
 
Thank you for the free products and looking into this issue.
 
Diana

Number of spreadsheets limitation

2013-11-07 Thread Gabriel T. de O. Castellani


Good afternoon.

Since we are in an effort to erradicate MS Office from our 
business, I have a suggestion that may be very simple to fix for future 
releases: the max number of spreadsheets. The number of spreadsheets is 
now limited to 256 (byte) for release 4.0.1, but MS Excel manages much 
more than that (I still don't know the limit, but we have here a file 
with 336 spreadsheets, which cannot be opened in OO 4.0.1 without loss).


I know it can affect the amount of memory used, but, maybe, not 
that much.


Thanks a lot for hearing me. Have a nice job!

And where does OpenOffice document its choices? In 
OpenDocument-v1.2-cd05-part2 2.3 I read: "Applications should document 
all implementation-defined and variances from this standard in a manner 
that the application users can obtain the information (e.g., in the 
application help for the relevant function)."


If we have nothing, starting a wiki page seems a better option than 
integrating the application help right now.



If we ever do go to a warning mode in Calc, where users are warned
about potential calculation issues, these would probably be ones that
we would check for.


This is not going to happen soon, but by 4.0, especially if we want to 
advertise the better ODF compliance we'll have by then, our 
implementation-defined behavior should be documented.

Thanks a lot for showing us what else is not "written in stone" but 
depends on the respective application how it is implemented. 61 is an 
impressively high number.


Besides a feasible warning mode, maybe it's also possible to bring the 
high number down and with the remaining stuff we could create a new 
options tabpage, to leave it to the (power) user what result she/he 
would like to have.


The default value (e.g., 1) and the other posibilities (e.g., 0, error) 
could be described in help topics, so that the users can look by 
themselves why AOO is showing this result / error.
