johnd Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Hi I have been having issues with formulae not working in OO3.0.0 and 003.0.1. I have found that it works fine if you write your formulae in MSExcel manner with "," separators instead of ";" separators. This is a pest since I use oo3 at work running on Vista and at home on Mandriva. Formulae do not work without making manual changes Is there a setting to revert this back to the old standard?

neddie Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Interesting, I hadn't noticed this yet (I only got 3.0.0 the other day). But I noticed that when I open my old spreadsheets which were written with ";" in the formulae, they still work and are now shown using ",". There do appear to still be bugs with this (at least with the 3.0.0 included with Mandriva 2009.0), but it seems I don't need to change all my old spreadsheets. Sorry I don't know if this is configurable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2 Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 theYinYeti was having a similar issue with syntax errors in this thread. He filed a bug report here: bug #45269 I would suggest that you add your info to that report. Maybe with more than one user reporting problems it will get some attention.

neddie Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 I'm pretty sure this is a completely different problem. This ubuntu bug talks about this semicolons/commas issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
