Nor can I make this work (2.4.1/XP). I just get the result copied across - F2 will edit the original, but the copy apparently has no formula to edit. That's using copy/paste on the cell contents; using copy/paste within the formula bar for the two cells does exactly that without adjustment. Why is the table stuff so different in writer compared to calc? I'd have thought the code would and should be basically the same. -- Permission for this mail to be processed by any third party in connection with marketing or advertising purposes is hereby explicitly denied. http://www.scottsonline.org.uk lists incoming sites blocked because of spam [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mike Scott, Harlow, Essex, England --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
