Hi all

I am in touch with Sun engineers on OpenOffice Calc regarding datapilot
performance.  I understand there have been performance issues with pivot
tables - in fact it is a well known openoffice problem.  Can anyone send me
a reasonably substantive excel worksheet with pivot tables which I can send
to Sun to see if we can't motivate improvement of openoffice calc in this
area.

Regards
Bob

Sure.  Thanks.  I will try and get hold a realistic sample from the field
rather than a concoction.
