Eric Patterson commented on OFFICE-2750:
----------------------------------------
This does need to be address so that information is not lost when writing the formula string to a file. Another example is a 3d reference where the first or last sheet has been invalidated.
> Needs-Discussion: 5.8: Error Literals in References

> Key: OFFICE-2750
> URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2750
> Project: OASIS Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) TC
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: OpenFormula
> Affects Versions: ODF 1.2 CD 05
> Reporter: Eric Patterson

> When a part of a refence has been invalidated (ex. deleting a column) it is often useful to show an error literal as the part of the reference that was invalidated. The reference syntax seems to indicate that a reference can be used in place of the sheetname, but the exact syntax doesn't seem clear.
> For example, if you have a formula that adds cell A1 and B2 and then delete column B, what will the resulting formula be?
> In Excel:
> Original formula =A1 + B1
> Resulting formula =A1 + #REF!
> In Calc:
> Original formula =A1 + B1
> Resulting formula =A1 + #REF!1
