6.18.10 LEFT and large Length argument
Hi,

Section 6.18.10 LEFT states in the testcases that

    =LEN(LEFT("xxx";2^15-1))

    Needs to return empty string at level > 1.

I think that is wrong. If Length is greater than the numbers of
characters of text, the full text must be returned, same as with
RIGHT().

Opinions?
