Yes it probably applies to OpenOffice.org Calc as well. Spreadsheets are just not a good tool for sophisticated data analysis whether it be in the finacial or scientific fields. Have a look at the Don't Do It link posted above for some reasons. Also have a look at http://www.eusprig.org/ and click on Public Report of Errors or have a look at Ray Panko's Human Errors Website http://panko.shidler.hawaii.edu/HumanErr/index.htm. Some estimates say that even moderately complicated spreadsheets contain errors and are even more error prone when modified.
