No wonder it hasn't been maintained for the last 17 years! I had contact with an author who is working on refactoring the oleo spreadsheet source code and he told me it has huge functions in it with huge state tables and when things get broken inside projects like that it's difficult to locate the defective code to repair it. Must have been Microsoft Windows programmers writing that spreadsheet originally. I was told had Microsoft had all unterminated loops in the source code for Windows XP properly closed the whole operating system would have had no problem running in 640K of memory. --
