Hi Michael,
I confess myself guilty :D
Happens to us all!
If you could suggest a better wording?
What is meant:
* if the option "Conversion from text to number" is set to "Generate
#VALUE! error" then the option "Treat empty string as zero" is
disabled
* in this case an empty string also generates a #VALUE! error
* if the option "Conversion from text to number" is set to "Treat as
zero" then the option "Treat empty string as zero" is disabled
* in this case an empty string is converted to zero as well
Now how to squeeze that in the little space available..
LOL not sure if that made it any clearer. Let me check first if I
understood you by taking out some ifs:
Scenario 1
Set "Conversion from text to number" to "Generate #VALUE! error"
disables "Treat empty string as zero"
Result: [empty string] in a calculation > error
Scenario 2
Set "Conversion from text to number" to "Treat as zero" disables "Treat
empty string as zero"
(I'm assuming that makes sense somehow, that both scenarios disable
"Treat empty string as zero" though somehow my gut says this should be
"enables")
Result: [empty string] in a calculation > turns into zero
This options determines how empty strings are handled in calculations.
If empty strings are set to result in an error, this option is disabled.
If empty strings are set to be treated as a zero, this option is enabled.
What it probably meant is locale instead of language. I'd have to
lookup its use though, but that "wizard" is a mess.. a quick browse
didn't reveal anything. As this is in since years and I doubt anyone
except people of a country affected by a Euro adoption in its first
months is using this wizard, if at all, I'd just silently ignore it
unless someone wants to deep dive into it.
Hm ok I'll ignore it then, thanks for the explanation!
Michael
