6. OFFICE-4094: Redefinition of SECOND function in regard to rounding
Do we agree on reopening this issue (e.g. by pressing in JIRA the "Reject edits" button)?
See proposal and comparison shown in attached ODT to JIRA: Âhttps://issues.oasis-open.org/secure/attachment/12085/12085_NewProposal+SECOND+function.odt
The proposal is that the TRUNCATE parameter would default to TRUE, which is the current expected (ODF 1.3) behaviour. But MS Excel currently rounds, i.e. behaves as if the TRUNCATE parameter is set to FALSE.
To support the proposed change, MS Excel would need to explicitly write out TRUNCATE = FALSE
