------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Apr 21 16:49:46 -0700 2005 ------- Hi all, [I sent this as an additional comment to issue 35210, which related to OOo-writer and is 'closed'. So I thought it better to file a new Caalc issue.] I would like to comment on the part of issue 35210 which was not considered, i.e. the "\xXXXX" (search for hexadecimal code). I tested in 1.1.4 and Beta2.0(1.9.82) Calc on a Linux/Debian (Intel) PC. Filled col. A1 of a new spreadsheet with these strings: %30 "12 '22 ?100 ^200 then attempted to find and replace the heading chars with a space so that those figures could become real numbers. The chars %, ? and ^ were easily found and replaced in whatever way I searched for them, i.e. either as glyphs or as hex \x0025, \x003f and \x005e. There was no way, instead, to trace the remaining glyphs, that is " and '. Besides the symbols, I used \x0022 for " and \x0027 for ' (and a few other possible hex chosen from Insert Special Characters table) to no avail. Of course, the regular expression box was ticked during the search.
