October 10, 2007 (Computerworld) - "Microsoft on Wednesday patched a bug in Excel 2007 that displayed wrong values for calculations around a pair of numbers, and said it would push the fixes through Windows Update as soon as possible. The bug, which Microsoft acknowledged two weeks ago, displays 100,000 as the result of calculations that should instead show either 65,535 or 65,536… Only the newest version, Excel 2007, and its online cousin, SharePoint's Excel Services 2007, contain the bug. Fixes for the bug, as well as documentation logged into Microsoft's support database, have been posted to the company's download site, with links available on Microsoft's Excel blog. The download for Excel 2007 is a substantial 32.5MB… The patch was not among the non-security updates included with yesterday's bulletins… The next regularly scheduled update is Nov. 13, but Microsoft has also taken to rolling out non-security hotfixes, especially for newer products such as Windows Vista, on the last Thursday of each month. This month, that day will be Oct. 25."
