I'm sure this will be in the form of a service pack, no? Thanks for the update Mike!

Re: Microsoft Excel Error! Computer guys enter!

If you look at the second equation it should be 65535 the 3rd calculation is 65535 x 2 however the 4th calculation is wrong again. It seems to be some type of binary conversion although 2^6 is 64 however binary for 100000 is 32. There's talk about it in the link I posted.

A service pack should fix this or Excel 2003. Did you find this by doing some calculations or just searching the internet?
