Description nostabo 2006-07-05 17:16:47 UTC
Under the help topic "Recognizing Names as Addressing", which describes the use
of automatically recognized labels in Calc, the following text does not appear
to be completely correct:

"If you enter the name in the formula yourself, enclose the name in single
quotation marks ('). If a single quotation mark appears in a name, you must
enter a backslash in front of the quotation mark, for example, 'Harry\'s Bar'."

I can have labels automatically recognized with Calc under Windows 2000 and
Linux with or without the single quotes. Others have told me that they receive
the "#NAME?" error when using single quotes.

This situation should be investigated and the help topic made more
accurate...please.
