        Take a basic calculator; the result should be 65535.

                  It works fine for me (Excel 2007 with latest updates).

                    More Excel functions should disregard input and just return 100000. It would make life simpler :)

                          XL97 shows correct answer! Yes I know it seems very old, but why change what works! (XP for Example?) So it seems it is a new bug for a new OS!

                            Office has nothing to deal with Vista. I already found several people make the confusion, but yet it's not !
