A Translation Mistake on functions
Hello,
I use Office 2016 pro plus, I use in English normally, but for work sake I must use it in Turkish.
Currently, I found translation mistake on two functions.
IMSUM and IMSUB
The Turkish term of IMSUM Subtracts the calculation, and IMSUB sums it.
The mistake delayed my project for a month.
Please fix this soon.
Thank you and have a good day!

Gnd_Teknoloji .... For quicker constructive responses, attach an Excel file that demonstrates the problem. If this forum does not permit that, upload the Excel file to a file-sharing website, and post the public download URL in a response here. I like box.net/files; others like dropbox.com. You might prefer onedrive.live.com, which uses the same login id as this forum. If this forum does not permit you to post the link verbatim, spell it out. For example, app dot box dot com /s/4urgjux6hesqto2f1lu7nz780o6dzacl for the link https://app.box.com/s/4urgjux6hesqto2f1lu7nz780o6dzacl .
I have attached an example file. When you open it, the English function names IMSUM and IMSUB will be translated into the Turkish names automagically, but not in the comment fields. So we can see how the English and Turkish function names match up automatically, without a lot of back-and-forth banter.
By the way, why are you using those functions, in the first place? Are you truly working with "complex" (aka "imaginary") values of the form 2+3i ?(!)

We calculate frequence response of the electronic circuits.

Thanks for reporting this.
Could you please confirm the Turkish Excel version & build number you are using?
You can find that out by going to File | Account | About Excel
Many thanks!

- Gnd_TeknolojiCopper ContributorI will when I got to work.
I can tell you the version of Excel in the morning(GMT-3), when I go to work; albeit, I found this is a problem since Excel 2007.
So, this is not a new problem.
Thanks for the reply!- SergeiBaklanDiamond Contributor
