Strange behavior of 4.1.1. Math (file attached)
Dear OO team, Lately one of my superior got problems using the Calc part if your product. They are using the function LOOKUP in rows in which the text is not sorted in ascending or descending order the exact LOOKUP function is not working. There is attached file with the exact situation. However, if we try this in MS Office the problem is non existent and we could lineup all of the rows. Any help, or further information will be much appreciated BR~ 150126 TEST with NA error.ods Description: application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.spreadsheet - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org

So it's not my product. They are using the function LOOKUP in rows in which the text is not sorted in ascending or descending order the exact LOOKUP function is not working. The help text makes very clear that this is not supported: ... the search vector for the LOOKUP must be sorted in ascending order, otherwise the search will not return any usable results. In addition, the Calc Guide says Use LOOKUP when: The search data is sorted in ascending order. There is attached file with the exact situation. To search unsorted lists, you need to use either HLOOKUP() or VLOOKUP() as appropriate. However, if we try this in MS Office the problem is non existent and we could lineup all of the rows. If you prefer Microsoft Office, I believe licences are available for purchase. But in any case, the Microsoft web site says about the Excel LOOKUP() function *Important* The values in _lookup_vector_ must be placed in ascending order. [...] If you do not do so, *LOOKUP* may not give the correct value. - which seems to contradict what you claim. Any help, or further information will be much appreciated Either: o Sort your Reference table by column D Or: o Replace your formula =LOOKUP($B$3;$D$5:$D$15;$E$5:$E$15) with =VLOOKUP($B$3;$D$5:$E$15;2;0) I trust this helps.

Is this correct? No. Dragging the fill handle (not the cell boundary) is indeed one, often convenient way. But others are copying and pasting, as well as using Edit | Fill | Down. For these, you will need to select the target range, but you can easily do that using click at one end and Shift+click at the other. I am asking since the original file in question has a column of 300 rows and using the mouse proved to be very very slow, but clean(C2:C300) did not work neither. Actually, you can use formulae like that, where a function operates on a range: o Select the first cell of the target range. o Enter the formula. o To complete the formula, don't press Enter or click the green arrow. Instead, press Ctrl+Shift+Enter. The formula (visible in the Input Line) has now grown enclosing braces, as {=CLEAN(C2:C300)} - but note that you cannot type the braces yourself. This is called an array formula. (By the way, I think I'd established that CLEAN() wouldn't work for you: three applications would be necessary to remove all five tab characters and you would still have the remaining space and non-breaking space to deal with if you wanted to process the values as numbers.)

Re: ABC Spelling does not work
Dennis, I think the Open Office spell check works. Why I think it does not is when I use F7 or high light the word the whole sentence appears - not just the word in question. When you move to the desired word all it says is word is not in the dictionary. This form of spell check is really useless/worthless. I use to highlight the word or use F7 and if misspelled it would recommend a correct spelling for the word - which it no longer does. I did our family tree a couple years ago and this was not only a time saver but also really appreciated. Simply put - How in the heck do I get this method of spell check back?? Yahoo mail highlights misspelled words, I cannot figure out why Open Office cannot. Unrelated question: What app do you down load to be able to email privately ??

Jon At one time I was advised to do the following to correct the problem - - I have no idea what a login name is or remember the name used 10+ years ago to log into windows. I guess, in honesty, I have no idea how to proceed to solve my problem with these instructions. I am a simple hands on person, not a computer guru.o Close OpenOffice. o If it is running, close the Quickstarter. Find its icon in the System Tray (bottom right of screen), right-click it, and select Exit or Quit or whatever. o (Outside OpenOffice) go to My Documents (Windows Explorer) and navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\login-name\Application Data\OpenOffice\4 - where login-name is the name you use to log in to Windows. Note that Application Data is a hidden folder, so you will either have to enable the display of hidden folders or else type the name in yourself. One simple way is to get as far as C:\Documents and Settings\login-name, then put the cursor into the Address bar above the list at the end of the current display, type \Application Data (no quotes) and press Enter. Then you can easily continue to browse to ...\OpenOffice\4. o Rename the user folder you find there (which contains the actual profile) in order to disable it. (Alternatively, you could just delete it.) o Restart OpenOffice, which should create a clean copy of the profile for you. On Friday, January 30, 2015 1:20 PM, Dennis E.

Apache OpenOffice works on many different products and operating systems. Please provide 1. What kind of computer you are using. 2. What the operating system and version are (e.g., Windows XP, Windows 8.1, Macintosh OSX, etc.) 3. Have you added any writing tools (grammar checker, spell checker) other than those that are installed with your version of Apache OpenOffice? Are you using the English version of Apache OpenOffice? 4. When you install Apache OpenOffice do you accept the options that are provided during installation and not change anything? Or do you customize the installation in some manner? There is a common technique that often works. It is called resetting the user profile. That will have Apache OpenOffice rediscover the dictionaries and other settings. It is sort of a power-user thing.

Re: need help with a problem
OpenOffice is not a company, no offices, no phone. Is a community and a project, you are free to use it, test it and distribute it. You can also hire support from companies that do professional support for it. They do have a phone number: http://www.openoffice.org/bizdev/consultants.html We would need more information in order to determine when and how does the Freeze happens. It could be a third party application interrupting on the closing process. Please give us the version of OpenOffice that you are using, the current one is 4.1.1.
