Hi :) MS Office 2010 and earlier used a bad implementation of an old version of the ODF formats which meant that Word/Writer was fine but Calc/Excel lost all the formulas and just gave fixed values instead. They were able to give a reasonable excuse for shunning the ODF 1.2 that everyone else was using quite happily at the time.
MSO 2013 and 365 now uses the same ODF as everyone else since ODF 1.2 finally got officially released a couple of years previous to that. Plus they fixed their implementation so it now allows formulas in spreadsheets. Regards from Tom :) ________________________________ From: Gordon Burgess-Parker <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, 26 August 2013, 21:39 Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] .docx file format disturb in libreoffice 4.0 Writer On 26/08/13 21:37, Jay Lozier wrote: > Or refuse to buy or use any version of MSO until MS correctly uses odf > formats as default formats. Certainly in Office 2010 you have the option to set ODF as the default document type, and I believe that in Office 2013/365 they've fixed the ODS>Excel "bug" of displaying values instead of formulae.. -- Registered Linux User no 240308 GBP's alternative computing: http://gbplinuxfoss.blogspot.com/ Say No to OOXML http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/9594#mpart8 I only accept odf or pdf documents by email -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
