             Bug #: 43262
           Summary: : OFFSET function's third argument is mandatory,
                    contradicting Help
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.4.4 release
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
 Status Whiteboard: BSA
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Spreadsheet
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


I am running Calc on Windows XP.  The OFFSET function, according to the Help,
takes two mandatory arguments (Reference and Rows) and three optional ones
(Columns, Height and Width).  However, entering it with only two arguments (as,
for example, OFFSET(A3,3)) gives 'Err:511' in the cell.  The error value goes
away if you supply a value for the third argument (as, for example,
OFFSET(A3,3,0)).  This behaviour clearly contradicts the Help entry for this
function, and I would venture that the function SHOULD behave as per the Help:
the commonest use of this function will surely be to 'move' a certain number of
rows from a given cell, staying in the same column.
