--- Comment #7 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> ---
Since 4.2.0.0.beta1, all formulas containing newline character result in
Err:501 (Invalid Character).

==Some information==
MS Excel allows to use newline in formulas (using Alt+Enter).
LO allows to insert newline into a formula (using Ctrl+Enter), but
automatically converts it to space character upon finished editing the cell.

OASIS OpenFormula specification v.1.2, clause 5.14 "Whitespace", allows using
line feed and carriage return as whitespace characters:
> Whitespace ::= #x20 | #x09 | #x0a | #x0d
(see
http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-part2.html#__RefHeading__1017970_715980110)

So, this bug is not an ODF limitation, but a serious defect in import filter.
