I have an OpenOffice Calc sheet with cells containing formulas that refer to another file, e.g: 'file:///C:/path/to/other.xls'#$Sheet1.A1:B2
.
Note: When I copy the cells from one sheet to another in the same workbookt, it works as expected. When I copy this to a sheet in another workbook, the references are lost and all is left is ''#$Sheet1.A1:B2
.
I could copy/paste the cell's contents, but that would be fastidious, error-prone, and anyhow not a good solution.
How do I keep the external references when copy-pasting from one workbook to another ?
