Hi :) If you type any number that is too long for a cell then it usually just fills the cell with #### marks. Words will generally overlap other cells unless those cells and then the writing gets truncated but you see the first few letters. I can't test the "now()" function until Thursday unless i get a call-out before then.
I tend to think that most programs are not "good" or "bad". Generally there are certain circumstances that fit some programs better than others. MS products are heavy and only recently been ported to systems other than reasonably new desktop machines running Windows. LibreOffice runs on at least 4 operating systems (counting all linux distros as 1 and all BSDs as another 1) and a much wider variety of machines of various ages, sizes and types. Regards from Tom :) ________________________________ From: plino <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Sat, 26 February, 2011 21:51:29 Subject: [libreoffice-users] Re: Calc trumps Excel Hi Tom I'm sorry to say but you are wrong on this one. LibO and OOo don't auto-resize but Excel does. Just type =now() on any cell and watch one of the reasons why Excel is the number one spreadsheet bar none ;) Cheers, Pedro -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Calc-trumps-Excel-tp2573005p2584477.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity *** -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
