Exactly!! That is because, in Sheet1 they are containing a what-if data table of size 1024x1024 from G21 to AMQ1045. Each cell contains essentially a number between 0 and 128. Sheet2 links these values from Sheet1 and then gives a conditional formatting with a 3 colour gradient scaling using percentage as the criteria (meaning Red for 0 till White for 64 till Blue for 128 or the other order of B-W-R).
Then the cell from G21 till AMQ1045 in Sheet2 has been reduced in size to 1 in row size and 0.1 in col size. This gives a beautiful picture as shown in the Screenshots. Point is, If we can somehow make these files work in OpenOffice.org ---- Then 1. Fractals can be easily introduced to schools without money involved, which is a revolution, 2. Management software costs will reduce considerably since What-If analysis and Conditional Formatting with gradient scaling comes at 0 cost. 3. We may be looking at a fresh opening for OpenOffice.org Sorry, if I am being paranoid, but I know that it is possible and is only a matter of time. -Manu On Tue, Nov 16, 2010 at 12:48 PM, Marcello Romani <[email protected]>wrote: > Il 15/11/2010 18:38, Manu Unni V G ha scritto: > >> My mistake again.
