Not sure if I understand what you want to do, but did you try hyperlink() function ?

Status has been set to NEEDINFO, please set it back to UNCONFIRMED once requested information has been provided.

Hello Jean-Baptiste,

hyperlink() can't do the job.

The new feature i would have is to have a "folder" object that I can drag into a cell and when I open this folder object, i can drag and drop source code ou images or any document inside.

The content inserted into this "folder" must be saved into the current libreoffice document.

I must be able to insert as many "folder" as I want in a spreasheet.

That would be a very great feature for everyone who is testing things for example.

I can be joined to my email adress to send an example calc file at jphcombe at gmail.com

Best regards

Jean-Philippe

What is the size of a typical folder?

I do not understand why. What is the gain if having this lot of folders in a spreadsheet?

Considering the enhancement that you propose as a function, I do not understand what problem this function can solve.
