When copying a field text value down the column and also when using Vlookup, a number value increments incorrectly. In the case of a text field name, I used Orgs-02-04 as a value to drag/copy down the column and the value 04 incremented by one each time in the next field. In the case of VLookup, I created an array of A2:B244 and when dragging down the field to replicate the function, the A_ incremented each time to the next number so the lookup didn't work for most fields as the "array" it was looking in often didn't have that particular row
Hello John, Thank you for filing the bug. Please send us a sample document, as this makes it easier for us to verify the bug. I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO', so please do change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' once you have attached a document. (Please note that the attachment will be public, remove any sensitive information before attaching it.) How can I eliminate confidential data from a sample document? https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/FAQ#How_can_I_eliminate_confidential_data_from_a_sample_document.3F Thank you
Created attachment 122448 [details] 2 spreadsheets one is the array and the other the data field to find the spreadsheets showing the VLOOKUP error are attached; I do not have the spreadsheet where I attempted to copy the Field data down through the 1st column I did not attempt any other Fx's or other items in which the error occurred so I don't know if this type of "incrementing" is found elsewhere I am on Libre 4.4.7.2 and Win 10
(In reply to John from comment #2) > Created attachment 122448 [details] > 2 spreadsheets one is the array and the other the data field to find It seems you forgot to attach the other file.
Created attachment 122537 [details] other spreadsheet used in VLOOKUP as the array
I can reproduce the incrementing of both values in A2:B244 We should be able to not increment by using the fill handle while pressing Ctrl. However, I get the incrementing regardless. I'm not sure of what to do with this, so adding needAdvice.

Please provide a clearer set of step-by-step instructions on how to reproduce the problem with the VLOOKUP. In my experience the increment is the expected behavior unless you use $ before the row numbers. I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' once the requested information is provided.
