Description Óvári 2013-11-13 06:39:43 UTC 
Problem description: 
When typed into a cell, would D:D or $D:$D select the entire D column.
Likewise, would 4:4 or $4:$4 select the entire 4th row.

For example
=VLOOKUP(Sheet2.$D$3,Sheet4.$D1:$D1048576,1)
=VLOOKUP(Sheet2.$D$3,Sheet4.$D:$D,1)

These ranges can be used in other functions too.

This would be helpful as if rows are deleted, or the number of rows are increased in future versions of Calc, the end range will not need to be changed.

Thanks in advance.

Steps to reproduce:
1. =VLOOKUP(Sheet2.$D$3,Sheet4.$D:$D,1)
2. #NAME?

Current behavior:
#NAME?

Expected behavior:
Correct value returned, given by
=VLOOKUP(Sheet2.$D$3,Sheet4.$D1:$D1048576,1)
Operating System: Windows 7
Version: 4.1.3.2 release
