Can you reference an entire column in OpenOffice Calc (like A:A in Excel)?
- by Andy
I'd like to refer to an entire column, like you can in Excel by using A:A. I found a discussion on the openoffice.org forums which is a few years old, and suggests there is/was no neat way to do it. The options presented are
Use A1:A65536.
Use OFFSET($A$1;0;0;65536;1) as the previous range may get altered if you insert or remove rows.
Use Data - Define Range... to name the column range (but which for me still just equates to $A$1:$A$1048576).
These approaches seem over-complicated and still don't achieve my goal perfectly. Does anyone know of a way?
Thanks,
Andy
