Hi all, this is a little example to show what is going on.
In A column I have a numeric list from 1 to 21, in the middle I have a
letter, lets put A.
If a run this function in the next column =IF(A1>10), this function
evaluate the letter A like TRUE, why?


1    FALSE
2    FALSE
3    FALSE
4    FALSE
5    FALSE
6    FALSE
7    FALSE
8    FALSE
9    FALSE
10  FALSE
11  TRUE
A   TRUE
13  TRUE
14  TRUE
15  TRUE
16  TRUE
17  TRUE
18  TRUE
19  TRUE
20  TRUE
21 TRUE


The ODF1.2 spec says ("functions" are here the comparison operators),
"These functions return one of True, False, or an Error if Left and Right have different types, but it is implementation-defined which of these results will be returned when the types differ."

And OpenOffice.org and LibreOffice have the simple rule "number is less than string". Excel and Gnumeric have these results too.

Kind regards
