It is.
As an update, I'm trying to use DDE as the linking to other
spreadsheets, as listed;
=DDE("soffice";"./bar_payouts2006.sxc";"May.I55")
This works under Linux OO 1.1.3, and OS X neo office 1.2.2 (I think
that's their revision #)
Yet I open the same spreadsheet under Linux OO 2.0.1 & OS X Neo Office
2.*.*, and the linking is broke.
Tools -> Options -> Load/Save -> Save URL's relative to;
filesystem & internet are checked, as on the OS X computer.
