[libreoffice-users] CRITBINOM function description is wrong

2013-07-22 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :) If anyone could try out this weird function and let us know what the results are then the documentation and translators teams might be able to describe it correctly.  So far Oasis doesn't seem to know what it does and MS can't decide what their equivalent function does either! Regards
