------- Additional comments from [email protected] Tue Dec 22 20:23:43 +0000 2009 ------- Also affected, voting. One awkward workaround appears be to paste your tables into spreadsheets (OO.o Spreadsheet) and use its comparison feature. However, you need to save out one of the sheet documents before you can run the comparison, which is annoying. So, two suggestions from a user: -If doing this "right" is somewhat difficult, can it be band-aided by comparing a checksum or hash for the entire table and doing something to indicate a mismatch [for the entire table as an object]? This would be way better than failing silently. (Presumably the hard part is not matching tables between documents by name.) Getting a "false difference" if only "metadata" (like the table name) differs would still beat getting a "false match" when it fails silently. -If the functionality in Sheet works, maybe someone wants to patch its comparison function to support comparing Sheet1, 2, 3 etc. in one spreadsheet "document". That would take a couple steps out of the workaround and make it almost-acceptable in the meantime. Or perhaps there's robust code in there that can be reused? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
