Dear developers,
I find that there is one important missing feature in the spreadsheet
program:
The possibility to set the colums label in number format in substitution
of letter format.
This feature is very useful in many many cases.
Thank you, and good work for this very good program!!!

You mentioned something earlier about our company. We don't work for a

For me it's all over the place. Most pre-release versions have been slow

is actually faster than 1.x. So I can hope that it's some sort of
debugging code that is slowing it down.
Cheers,
Daniel.
