Problem with updating cells that are referenced in other sheets
Gnumeric version 1.10.16
Windows 7 SP1 64-bit
I have two sheets in one Gnumeric workbook. One sheet, "Numbers", contains a series of number
groups. Each number group has six two-digit numbers. Each two-digit number is in one cell.
There is one number group on one row. There are several hundred number groups, therefore, there
are several hundred rows.
Each two-digit number in each number group of six numbers is in a column. The first two-digit
number in a number group is in the first column. The second two-digit number in a number group
is in the second column, etc.
The goal is to determine the frequency of instances of a particular number in a
given column.
For example, how often does the number 01 occur in the first column of numbers? This answer is
then referenced to second sheet, "Numbers_Frequencies".
An example of the formula that is used for this action is as follows:
"=COUNTIF('Numbers'!$B:$B, 01+'Numbers_Frequencies'!C6)".
The COUNTIF function for the above formula is to count the number of instances of the number 01
in column B on Sheet "Numbers" and reference it to cell C6 on Sheet "Numbers_Frequencies".
There are 326 variations of the above COUNTIF formula. They calculate all of the instances of
all of the numbers in a given range of numbers for all of the number groups in one sheet, and
then reference them to a second sheet.
After entering all of the formulas, I was able to undate all of the instances of the given
numbers that were already in the Numbers Sheet to the appropriate
reference cells in the
Numbers-Frequencies Sheet, but when I added a new row of numbers, the instances did not update
properly. In fact, most, if not all, of the frequency values were changed, and incorrectly. In
other words, I had a major screw up.
Fortunately, I had a back up of the original workbook. I attempted to update with a new row of
numbers again, but the same thing occurred. So, I have a problem. Gnumeric does not seem to do
what it is supposed to do.
What could be the problem? Is there a bug in Gnumeric 1.10.16 that prevents the accurate
updating of values between sheets?
Thanks for the help.
