Hello,
I very recently downloaded the open office programs and am learning
how to use them.
Which of the available programs from open office would be the
equivalent of Microsoft Publisher, as I was previously using this
and wish to use a similar format in the future.
I previously used Excel and wonder at this time why the "SUM"
function does not work in open office.
No doubt I am doing something incorrect. Can you please direct me in
these matters.
Thank-you kindly
Brian Charette
As regards the SUM function, one thing you might have wrong
(especially if you have recently used Excel) is the separator between
parameters of functions: in Excel this is a comma, but in Calc it is
a semi-colon. If you have Calc's syntax wrong, no function reference
with multiple parameters will work, of course.
I trust this helps.
