Subject: Re: [users] Calc -- worksheet names

I've noticed one annoying feature of Calc -- it apparently cannot support the use of a dash (ie, a hyphen) in worksheet names. Any '-' in an Excel worksheet name has been converted by Calc to '_'. I NEVER use the underscore, and I'm really disappointed with this constraint. Does anybody know why the constraint exists?

I asked the above question on this list last October, but there was only one respondent, who said " No idea why Calc does not support the dash (hyphen). But it might be something that you have to live with."

Can anyone add anything to that? Is there any reason for the constraint? Can it be removed? If so, how do I go about asking for that to be done?

Thanks in anticipation.

See http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=6087 which is quite old, and has 30 votes for it. Maybe adding your vote (and others as well) can raise it to a level getting some action.
