--- Comment #5 from b. <newbie-02 at gmx.de> ---

@xisco: 

"'Well, I agree with you, but reporting the same bugs again and again doesn't
help either."

well i agree with you, neither way produces / produced any progress, 

"Besides, the summary is talking about macros, while the steps doesn't mention
anything about macros"

the "macro(s)" are / is the function 'incdinc' - a macro 'function' - used as
an array formula in CD4 and CD6, 

to handle 'old' bugs i suggest the following: if a thread become too long, then
after 12 month without progress a developer or someone with skills writes a
concise summary of the bug and the info collected, and that is posted two
times, once as last comment for the original bug, that closed as 'old', and
posted a second time together with the relevant attachements and a reference to
the old bug as the start of a new thread. 

"*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 43003 ***"

what doesn't help either, 

if i'm remembering right @Eike wrote somewhere that macro functions can't be
evaluated in all situations, and that the expectations from 'recalculates all
cells in a sheet / file' in the help / manual are too high ('manual is
misleading'), could be an approach to check whether that applies to this
situation, and if: correct help and manual.
