Description Adrian Maire 2017-01-07 13:14:50 UTC
I am writing a macro function to make some calculations.

Every time I make a mistake (e.g division by zero), Calc show a pop-up modal dialog like "BASIC runtime error." Even if this could be avoided by just showing some "#ERROR" in the corresponding cell.

The problem is, Calc show this message FOR ALL AND EVERY 10000 CELLS IN THE TABLE. As I do not have 2 days to click 10000 times the "Ok" button, the only solution is to kill Calc. The result is similar to a hard-crash with lost of data, etc.

Please, have in mind a little cat die every time a developer use a modal dialog.
