--- Comment #19 from b. <newbie-02 at gmx.de> ---
@Bill Babb ... and others: 'SUM' is sensitive to the order of operands,
'=SUM(1E16; -1E16; 1)' -> 1 , '=SUM(1; 1E16; -1E16)' -> 0, 
it's an effect of 'cancellation' and will truncate small operands in
subtraction to different degree (between 'nearly nothing' and 'total
extinction', 
calc and excel process ranges with different strategies, thus expect
deviations,
