Bug Fix: Better validation of invalid formulas in WBS fields

A WBS field definition can have formulas on multiple places. For example, in Formula, field name, sub-header and conditional formula. If such a formula was invalid due to a wrong syntax, E.g. 3+(3, the user was not warned and the error was reported only afterward, for example, when check and repaint was executed. Now it is not allowed to enter such invalid formulas.

Change: Mail Merge operations under Word use XLSX as data source

So far, we used XLS format to bring variables to Word documents when doing mail merge operations. This was an old implementation designed to support Office 2003. The later is no longer supported so we now use XLSX instead. However, that doesn’t allow 16384 variables as we could expect with the new Excel format. Word still limits the number of merged fields to 256. Notice that when your estimate contains more than 256 variables, you can still tell Word which variables should be flagged to appear under Word documents.
