I exported a .ods file with a field containing
=indirect(""'sheet2'"."& "F"&COLUMN()-4)

It got saved as a .xls file and read in a german Excel installation (2003)
=indirekt("'sheet2'"."& "F"&SPALTE()-4)

The '.' needs to be a '!' for this reference to work using the sheet name.

Not sure what the fix is here, as it's inside a string and probably difficult to
find and handle correctly... but this is an incompatibility to Excel, and could
be fixed by allowing '!' as a sheet reference as well as '.'

I'd be happy to make using '!' for sheet reference a feature request to solve
this issue... otherwise, the only solution is to manually rework the
spreadsheets (ugly!).
