So finally pushed it to master. It's a safe change as it only changes the upper limit to 1E10.(and yes the check for greater 1E10 is intended instead of greater equal because excel behaves the same way)<br><br><a href="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/calc/commit/?id=514fa420a68076537adfc8d7344a20e8c0baa3f3">http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/calc/commit/?id=514fa420a68076537adfc8d7344a20e8c0baa3f3</a><br>

</div> FYI - we've stalled / dithered long enough on this ;-) can you commit<br>
your favoured patch Markus, and then we can analyse from there.<br>
<br>
Thanks for digging it out & doing the great research :-)<br>
