hmm, occurs with 1.1.0, 1.1.2, and 2.0 (m51) builds. Seems to be a core OpenOffice bug. Can I post this document upstream so more people can have a look at it?
Please feel free to post the file wherever needed. Thanks!
Ok, upstreamed as IZ 34263. Will track issue upstream and fold in fix when it becomes available (if its not to invasive) http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=34263
Unfortunately, it looks like OOo Calc does not support this feature yet. The upstream bug was marked as a duplicate of a very old bug, and the comments there indicate it as a Feature Request, so its probably not going to happen for 1.1.x or 2.0...
