Description strob 2010-08-20 12:27:58 UTC
In MS Excel a link to a distant cell looks like "[Test.xls]Tabelle1!$B$25". The
path to the table is somewhere in the background. In Calc this sort of link
always looks like "'file:///path/to/the/document/Test.ods'#$Tabelle1.B25".

If you e.g. sum up more of those distant cells, the code in the input line gets
longer and after a while it tends to be confusing.

Is it possible to get a switch in the options dialog or something to shorten the
file-links in Calc's input line?

Useful enhancement.
