I didn't have a copy of Calc to try things yesterday. My reference was a memory like a sieve and software superstitions (y'know, that 's the little irrational things you believe or do with software you've used for a long time and still have little habits that you thought were necessary when first learning, but aren't?) I think you're right about the commas. Commas and semi-colons do appear to work the same way in calc and excel. Commas delimit array elements, semi-colons delimit ranges (i.e. the multi-range A1:B2;C1:C5 references two separate areas but both are selected)
