What list?.... what do you mean by list... a list of numbers, a list of 
programming flaws, pseudo code structure. 
 
There is a significant issue with the basic function which doesn't allow me or 
a few people I have spoken to tonight work for them.
 
Just admit the sum function doesn't work, it can't add up which I find very 
difficult to understand.
 
But it doesn't matter, I have found a work around... that's using Excel on my 
Company laptop as that works!!!, and then re-importing my entire spread sheet 
into your backwards program to work at home.

Nope categorically incorrect, I'm afraid your wrong and you need to look at the 
code again. There are serious bugs within OpenOffice, doesn't anyone test the 
basics?
 
attached is a screen shot and it clearly shows the issue.  A calculation of 
different numbers showing clearly the formula which in excel WORKS! but in 
OpenOffice doesn't.  
 
Is it a limitation of the program? 
 
The only way I was able to calculate was doing the following formula which is 
medieval   =sum(c5+c9+C11   etc etc   that then produced a total.

This list does not allow attachments so your screenshot did not come through.

Please make use of the Support Forums -- https://forum.openoffice.org/

where you can provide an attachment of the sheet you're using that is returning 
the incorrect result. Typically a screenshot is not helpful for solving 
problems of this nature.

For the great majority of us, the SUM function works correctly.

Ok Darren, OpenOffice works fine for me. If I put numbers like 4,5,4,3 
into C5..C8 OpenOffice sums them up - the result is 16. If you put empty 
fields between (why?) you will see, that OpenOffice will mark only the 
last field with a box. Extend the box over all your numbers and you'll 
get 16 again.
