No crash here (also Excel 2008, but OS 10.4.11, should make no difference).

I get the expected result:

--> {{"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ""}, {"",
"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ""}, {"", "", "",
"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ""}, {"", "", "", "", "",
"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ""}, {"", "", "", "", "", "", "",
"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ""}, {"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "",
"", "", "", "", "", "", ""}, {"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "",
"", "", "", "", ""}, {"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "",
"", "", ""}, {"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "",
""}, {"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ""}, {"",
"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ""}, {"", "", "",
"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ""}, {"", "", "", "", "",
"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ""}, {"", "", "", "", "", "", "",
"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ""}, {"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "",
"", "", "", "", "", "", ""}, {"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "",
"", "", "", "", ""}, {"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "",

""}, {"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ""}, {"",
"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", 1234.0}}

What sort of data do you have in P20? Exactly, please.

Are you 100% sure that all the other cells are empty? No merged cells?
