Follow-up Comment #7, bug #51512 (project octave): Markus, The OOXML specs are here: https://www.ecma-international.org/publications/standards/Ecma-376.htm Looking through it I think several regexps in __OCT_xlsx2oct__.m may have to be reconsidered. Once done there's no need for helper subfunctions. I know what to do but the next weeks I lack time, hopefully I can pick that up after my vacation, or maybe you or someone else will beat me to it. Now that I mention: I remember to have struggled a bit with it before; at the time I found Excel itself wasn't always complying to the ECMA rules and Libre-/OpenOffice still less. I agree LibreOffice is a bit lacking. You may want to file an upstream bug report about setting the result type of boolean formulas to "numeric". The folks at LibreOffice seem relatively responsive. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?51512> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
