Functions in OpenOffice

Currently I am using Microsoft Office 2010 and am working in a small school.  I would like to use OpenOffice or LibreOffice but I have not found some of the functions that I like such as countifs, sumifs, and averageifs.  Because of using these functions, I do not feel that it would be an asset to change to OpenOffice.  Any suggestions?
Bob

Indeed, that list and http://forum.openoffice.org are the best place for 
user support. Bob, please use those channels in future.

Anyway, while at it, I can tell Bob that COUNTIFS, SUMIFS, AVERAGEIFS 
are supported as of Apache OpenOffice 4.0 (and of course the current 
4.0.1 supports them too). See 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+4.0+Release+Notes

Regards,
   Andrea.

You have directed your question to the general Apache Community development 
group. I'm sure the people over on the Apache Open Office user list are in a 
much better position to answer all your questions:

Hope this helps,
