[Bug 327731] Re: COUNTIF fails in openoffice.org calc Err:508
Time's a-passing. And erroneous documentation is a serious BUG. Bug = fails to function correctly, where correctly = as documented. I really don't care whether it's the documentation or the code that has the fault. You could fix the problem by changing the code to ; or by changing the user guide to , - 'either' would do, but 'neither' leaves you with A BUG. I have a concern about the quality of user guides. They do cause user problems. The documentation could perhaps be improved with better guidance for the authors and editors of the manuals. The standard for coding are great, but those for manuals are less so. This BUG is a perfect example of the problems caused by poor testing of the manuals. -- COUNTIF fails in openoffice.org calc Err:508 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/327731 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Use a comma instead of a semicolon, the separators have been localized. There is already a bug open regarding the fact that the documentation needs to be updated. If you use the function wizard it will create the function for you with the comma automatically.

Hi, thanks for submitting a bug report. Your openoffice.org version number appears to be from http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu - is that correct? -- COUNTIF fails in openoffice.org calc Err:508 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/327731 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Yes. I have that ppa in my sources list. I have a few other ppas also, but I'm pretty sure that's the one where my openoffice.org package came from. Should I report the bug straight to their PPA? This is x64.
