Dear Dan Chall,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today,
LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed
bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this
bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the
details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in
getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice
from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information
from Help - About LibreOffice.

If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to
RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help
- About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular
meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a
REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your
bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from
https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat:
https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team

Nice workaround. Confirming that I updated the excel spreadsheet with the
recommended fix, and that the formulas compute correctly when the sheet is
opened in LibreOffice. Thanks.

Eike: it *seems* to me that the replacement of the input cell's value should be
implemented as if the input cell had formula
'=', right? Not by modifying something else?

A *workaround* would be to make the input cell be outside of the range
mentioned in the formula cell. Namely, DSUM formula (used in the
MULTIPLE.OPERATION and Excel's table) refer to F4:F5 range; and the input cell
(the variable which value gets changed in the MULTIPLE.OPERATIONS/table) is F5
which is part of the mentioned range. If instead you put "Bill" to, say, G5;
and change B5 to '=G5'; and change input cell of the MULTIPLE.OPERATIONS/table
to G5 (so it's not part of resulting formula's ranges), then it would work.

My original report two years ago showed an ODS file that demonstrated the
failure of a calculation. I just added an Excel file that computes correctly in
Excel, but when I open it in LibreOffice, there's an error.

This excel file shows how the computations work in Excel

I don't remember much about this issue but it has resurfaced so I'm doing my
best to show what works in Excel but not LibreOffice.  I don't remember whether
I had to tweak the formulas to reflect application differences, but the
computations were straightforward analogues. I'm unable to demonstrate the
problem by opening the ods file in Excel and showing the success, but when I
open this XLS file in ODS it demonstrates the problem in LibreOffice.

Note that trying to re-create the calculation using Excel 2016's What-If
analysis (one-variable data table [1]) on the data from attachment 157933,
moving F4:F5 to F10:F11, I4 to H10, clearing H11:H13, selecting G10:H13,
running the Excel's "Data Table", and selecting G11 as "Column input cell", I
get "Input cell reference not valid" error from Excel. Indeed, I might do it
all wrong; a sample spreadsheet doing this from Excel would hopefully clarify.

bug 105683 is about inline arrays in general, while this one is about something
different, and no inline arrays are involved here in any way.

Additionally, OP has mentioned in [1]:

> What I did was to buy an MS Office subscription

So it *looks like* an interoperability issue. It would be nice to check what
Excel does in this case.

This seems like a DUP of bug 105683 to me.

The simple spreadsheet illustrates the problem.

I checked ask.libreoffice.org first and found one entry that seemed nominally
to describe the sort of problem I found, and one of the comments suggested a
posting of a bug report. That's why I came here.
