Problem with a spreadsheet:
I've generated it with Office 2000 excel.
I open it with openoffice 1.1 rc3 and the formula is corrupt.

The content of the Formula looks identical in both Excel and Calc or
am I missing something obvious? What is different is in how Excel and
Calc display the result of the formula. Calc display a '#REF' error
because the formula itself contains a '#REF' entry. Removing this
invalid entry and Calc display the same result as Excel. The behaviour
of Calc appears to be more correct here. Calc displays a #REF result
because there is an invalid entry in the Formula. Excel simply ignores
this and displays the result as if this entry was not in the formula.
So, correcting the invalid formula will give the correct result in
both applications. I will close this as WORKSFORME
