Abstract

This feature enables use of several different formula syntax conventions in Calc. The three formula conventions will be supported initially, with possible future additions of more conventions as needed. The conventions that will initially be included are

• Calc A1 (current convention)
• Excel A1
• Excel R1C1

The current formula convention can be switched at run-time, via the Options page.
