Re: STRSQL question

JMHO and my experience - Numbers is a very minimal-function renderer of spreadsheets - it supports an extremely small subset of XLSX features. Not surprised it wouldn't do what you'd expect.

Thanks, everybody.

As it turns out, it wasn't necessary.

I had to switch from copying and pasting to a Numbers spreadsheet (which was treating commas as field separators) to using an OpenOffice spreadsheet for entirely different reasons (I'm doing some janitorial work on the fraction of a percent of some data that got mangled on migration), and lo and behold, OpenOffice was recognizing what the commas were, and accordingly ignoring them.
