RE: bug in functions 'roundup' and 'ceil'

["Tom Musgrove" <TomM pentstar com>]

Jody,

If a file with an xls extension is opened perhaps have a dialog that pops up
that says 'Use Excel (version number) compatibility?'
Thus if they need it for some reason it is easily turned on.  Also, have the
check box for 'ask this question each time an excel file is opened?'  Thus
those who never/always want it compatible can choose it once.

Or alternatively have a warning dialog 'warning some Excel functions have
errors in rounding.  Those functions have been implemented without the
errors in Gnumeric, thus there may be minor differences in calculation
outcomes'

Another possibility would be to give the option of highlighting cells that
use functions that give incorrect results...
