            Bug ID: 172479
           Summary: Function TEXTAFTER() does not match Excel365 results
                    with "match end", Interop issue
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 26.8.0.0 alpha0+ master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

The Excel365 formulas 

=TEXTAFTER("apple-orange-banana"; "-"; 3; 0;0;"not found")
returns "not found".
(there is no 3rd instance of "-" -> catch error and display "not found")

=TEXTAFTER("apple-orange-banana"; "-"; 3; 0;1;"not found")
returns "" (empty string)
(there is no 3rd instance of "-" but returns silently, i.e. no error)

The Calc formulas

=TEXTAFTER("apple-orange-banana","-",3, 0,0,"not found")
returns "not found". OK!

=TEXTAFTER("apple-orange-banana","-",3, 0,1,"not found")
returns "banana" NOT OK.

Should return empty string "" for interop sake.

The 5th parameter is called "match end". It not very clear in the Help page of
LibreOffice TEXTAREA and not even in MS Support page.


Note: May affect TEXTBEFORE() as well.
