Default How can I write multidimensional arrays in Excel Formulas?

Hi Vasil

It is a function of Regional Settings for your computer in your locale.
For me with English (United Kingdom) settings, if I go to Customise and
look at List separator, I see a comma ","
If I switch setting to German, for example, then I see the semicolon ";"
as a separator.

Excel will use whatever is the correct setting for your locale.

I read in the documentation. That multidimensional arrays should look
something like that ={1,2,3;4,5,6;7,8,9}, but my Excel regards that as
an
error. The program allows me only to type that: = {1;2;3;4;5;6;7;8;9}.
I have
also noticed that in the Excel documentation that function parameters
are
delimited by comma like that:
=if(true(),1,0), but again Excel tells me that this is an error. When
I
write it with semicolon like if(true();1;0) it is working. Can you
explain me
what is happening?

P.S. I am using MS Excel 2003 (11.6560.6568) SP2
