[Bug 120802] New: Failure to calculate formula in spreadsheet

https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=120802

          Priority: P3
            Bug ID: 120802
          Assignee: ooo-issues@incubator.apache.org
           Summary: Failure to calculate formula in spreadsheet
          Severity: normal
        Issue Type: DEFECT
    Classification: Application
                OS: Windows 7
          Reporter: njbellord@gmail.com
          Hardware: PC
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: AOO 3.4.1
         Component: editing
           Product: spreadsheet

I am using the spreadsheet to keep accounts.  Items are in column E and a
running new balance is kept in column F.

So the standard formula entered in column F is to add the previous balance in
the cell immediately above to the new item in column E.  e.g. in cell F5 the
formula is F4+E5.

This works fine until you get to cell F924 where the formula is F923+E924 and
it fails, displaying #VALUE!

It all worked fine under the previous release and the bug has only appeared in
3.4.1.  I had already entered data on row 924 and onwards in the previous
release and only after loading the new release did things go wrong.

It seems to be a fault that happens all along row 924 onwards i.e. is not
peculiar to any particular column.

Not a bug, per original reporter.

Sorry I see that this was not a bug after all.  An invisible non-numeric
character in E924 caused this behaviour.
