- I don't know how to put this, either a bug or I don't understand
- some peculiar facility....
-
- TurboCalc3.5 version 3.54 English.
-
- 1. Select CELL C15, edit to =C5+C6-SUM(C7:C14)
- 2. Mark Cell C15-N15
- 3. Menu: Edit/Fill/Right (N15 reads =N5+N6-SUM(N7:N14)
- 4. Select Cell D5, edit to =C15.
- 5. Mark Cell D5-N5
- 6. Menu: Edit/Fill/Right (N5 reads =M15)
- 8. Fill C6:N14 with random values.
- try:
- Set C6 to 37.
- Mark C6:N6.
- Menu: Edit/Fill/Right
- Now: ( on my screen)
- C15 displays 37 (correct) formula is =C5+C6-SUM(C7:C14)
- D5 displays 37 (correct) formula is =C15
- D15 displays 74 (correct) formula is =D5+D6-SUM(D7:D14)
- ** E5 displays 0 (INcorrect) formula is =D15, which is 74.
- Place cursor E5 and activate edit window.
- Do not alter, just press return.
- !! E5 suddenly turns to 74, which is OK, E15 is '111' , ok too.
- But, F5 now reads 37, it should be '111' !!!
- Everytime I edit a cell then correction steps one column
- more to the right side. After 11 inputs then the
- spreadsheet displays the correct values.
- 9. The rightmost columns are not calculated properly,
- the left ones are correct, but there is error
- int the transport from (x)15 to (x+1)5.
- 10. I've done exactly the same construction in a
- Professional Calc spreadsheet, and there it
- works just fine. So does MaxiPlan.
- 11. I bought TurboCalc as I want to keep the
- Amiga alive, but miscalculations could cause
- serious trouble. Very serious....
- 12. I have sent information to the proper sources,
- and I post this to listen if anyone other has
- discovered any probles with TurboCalc, or if
- anyone can spot fault behaviour from me when
- construction the spreadsheet.
-
- Appreciating comments from other TurboCalc users I
- sign off. CU.
-
- And, just for information, I'm a registered user and
- received the program from the UK last Thursday.
