--- Comment #8 from Lionel Elie Mamane <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #4) > The limitation to 40 bit in input with HEX2BIN, is because once converted, > in the current strange implementation, the output should be less than 10 > bits. To fit the result in 10 bits (10 binary digits), the input has to fit in ... 10 *bits*, not 10 *nibbles* (that is, 10 hexadecimal digits, which correspond to 40 bits)! Anyway, I don't understand what the limitation of one implementation is doing in the "implementation neutral" standard. And it seems that the implemenation in LibreOffice cannot handle 10 bits, only 9: =HEX2BIN("2FF") gives "Err: 502" but =HEX2BIN("1FF") gives "111111111". This is not my area of expertise, so I'll shut up now. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
