Thus was born and the spread of the free software took its course. This was the precursor to OpenOffice: one year later the source code of StarOffice was released, so that developers could see it and use it for their purposes. Star Division was bought by the Californian Sun Microsystems in 1999 - in the same year Sun StarOffice 5.2 was released. The company launched StarOffice 3.0, an office solution for Windows, OS/2 and Mac in 1995. The application originated as a commercial office product from the German company Star Division. ✔ Multiple language versions installable✘ Shared editing of files not integrated ✔ Joint editing of files possible via additional app✘ Own server required for teamwork ✔ Runs more stable even on older or less powerful computers✘ Only 32-bit version available✘ Rarely updates, hardly any new functions ✔ Slightly faster 64-bit version available✔ Regular updates with new functions✘ Many additional features come at the expense of stability ✘ Fewer additional functions than LibreOffice✘ Less compatible with more complex formatting ✔ Creating charts (CHARTS)✔ Larger selection of presentation templates✔ More additional functions in the writing program✔ More import and export functions ✔ Better compatibility with more complex formatting

More closely aligned with Google Office applications The fix is to redesign the memory management method for Calc sheets and has nothing to do with 32/64 bit issues.More closely aligned with Microsoft Office applications 16 bit allows indices up to 65,536 so, if 65,536 is the limit in the number of columns, it is likely to be a historical 16 bit limit unless both row number and column number are contained in the same index number.Įdit: Column number seems to be a memory management problem, where even tiny sheets need to use much more memory if the column number is increased.

That being said, I somehow doubt that 60,000 columns is a 32/64 bit limit as 32 bit allows indices up to 4,294,967,296. How many users want 60k+ columns in a spreadsheet compared with how many users don't? This has been the case for well over 10 years, so this whole attitude of, oh well we really don't need 64 bit why bother is just becoming a very negative excuse.įeature enhancement is about getting the maximum benefit for the maximum number of users with the available, always limited, resource.
