namade ranged like "µ" or "ω3" are note allowed in 3.5, there were in 3.3.
Comment 1 Markus Mohrhard 2012-01-06 11:22:40 UTC
We no longer allow names that would be interpreted as reference in one of our formula conventions. I'm not sure but is it possible that "µ" or "ω3" can be interpreted as cell or column address?
Comment 2 franky.chambers 2012-01-06 12:10:15 UTC
The problem is that was legal in previous version, and I was able to enter LO formulas, that mimic math formulas.
Now, I must change all my formulas.

Comment 3 Markus Mohrhard 2012-01-06 12:20:21 UTC
That was a then a bug in the old implementation. ODF/OpenFormula clearly state that names that can be interpreted as values or addresses are not allowed.

I'm sorry that you need to change your formulas but we can't stop fixing bugs because some old documents that relied on these bugs will no longer work.
