You have been using Quatro for a very long time. Anything else feels very strange to you, but not to the majority. You simply have to stick to the change and get used to it :-)
1-2-3's macro language, as extended by QP's, was the second, and only, other than English I ever became fluent in. I'm long past learning new languages. QP won't be replaced as long as I can keep eCS booting. My macro collection is huge. As I use it it's entirely pointing-device-free. It just works, and without thinking about it. Whatever I use that can read and write .ods files will simply be auxiliary.
Think about it this way: .ods spreadsheets, be it libreoffice, openoffice, or even excel, or any other partly or fully compliant spreadsheet, is the only format that today can be predicted to last for a decade or more. Other spreadsheets are rarities, minority software, that come and go depending on how many supporting devs they get. Thus, if you have to port your complex spreadheets to something else that needs your effort, do it to something with the greatest chance of lasting. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
