The formatting in my previous message was mangled. I have reformatted using | for column separator and _ for null character.I can't seem to get Calc to recognise column labels in array formulas. In addition, it seems to behave differently depending on whether there is number or text in the cells: With text val|new val|result_|formula in previous column___|expected _a|______|new val|{=IF('new val'="",'val','new val')}|_a _a|__d___|new val|{=IF('new val'="",'val','new val')}|_d With numbers num|new num|result|formula in previous column______|expected _12_|_______|_12_|{=IF('new num'="",'num','new num')}|_12 _23_|___24__|_23_|{=IF('new num'="",'num','new num')}|_24
If the content is text and the first cell is empty, then the automatic label detection might fail. In those cases define the label explicitly with Insert > Names > Labels.
Why do you need a matrix formula? And how do you enter it?
