Hello Sylvic,

Please, turn on "Enable regular expressions in formulas" in Tools -> Options -> OpenOffice.org Calc -> Calculate.

quoted from OpenOffice.org Help:
The search supports regular expressions. You can enter "all.*", for example to find the first location of "all" followed by any characters. If you want to search for a text that is also a regular expression, you must precede every character with a \ character. You can switch the automatic evaluation of regular expression on and off in Tools - Options - OpenOffice.org Calc - Calculate.

Best wishes,
Alex Janssen

Dear Sir:

I begin to use the Beta version of open office Cal.
I have used a function as follows:
={SUM(NOT(ISERROR(SEARCH(B12;A1:A9)))*B1:B9)}
It can run in EXCEL but not in Open Office 1.1. Now I am so glad when I open it in the beta version it works as in the first file "test open office" Cell B13:B14.So I transfer another file in EXCEL to Open Office beta versionas the file 2--Process Database Test. But unfortunately the same function can not be worked. Please check these files. What is happen in them? Is there some problem still not solved in the Beta version?
Thanks for your help.

Because of your capacity I only can send in two emails.

Best regards, Mozart LIU
