Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Calc trumps Excel

Hi :)

If you type any number that is too long for a cell then it usually just fills 
the cell with #### marks.  Words will generally overlap other cells unless those 
cells and then the writing gets truncated but you see the first few letters.  I 
can't test the "now()" function until Thursday unless i get a call-out before 
then.  


I tend to think that most programs are not "good" or "bad".  Generally there are 
certain circumstances that fit some programs better than others.  MS products 
are heavy and only recently been ported to systems other than reasonably new 
desktop machines running Windows.  LibreOffice runs on at least 4 operating 
systems (counting all linux distros as 1 and all BSDs as another 1) and a much 
wider variety of machines of various ages, sizes and types.  


Regards from
Tom :)

Hi Tom

I'm sorry to say but you are wrong on this one. LibO and OOo don't
auto-resize but Excel does.

Just type =now() on any cell and watch one of the reasons why Excel is the
number one spreadsheet bar none ;)

Cheers,
Pedro
