[OASIS Issue Tracker] Updated: (OFFICE-1508) Named relative cellranges

[ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-1508?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Eike Rathke updated OFFICE-1508:
--------------------------------

    Proposal: 
Andreas:
I propose that the sentence: 

"If the expression contains a relative cell range address, a table:base-cell-address attribute must also appear on the <table:named-expression> element." is to be deleted from 17.638.


Eike:
Do not remove the sentence. Instead, add
"Implementations shall determine the offsets of a relative cell range address relative to the table:base-cell-address."


  was:

"If the expression contains a relative cell range address, a table:base-cell-address attribute must also appear on the <table:named-expression> element." is to be deleted from 17.638.


Michael's interpretation is correct. I propose to add the sentence
"Implementations shall determine the offsets of a relative cell range address relative to the table:base-cell-address."

> 17.638 currently contains the paragraph:
>  If the expression contains a relative cell range address, a table:base-cell-address attribute must also appear on the <table:named-expression> element.
> The spreadsheet program Gnumeric allows for named ranges that are interpreted relative. This is useful for situations were one wants to write many similar formulas that for example refer to a certain number of cells to the top right.
