Hi all,

First of all thanks to the team for OOo2, you are doing a great work.

About our issue here, I see that there are patches already referenced here but I
don't know where is such a binary available out there, because it is not working
on OOo 202.

About the --- possibility not being parsed as =---  for example Excel lets you
bypass the formula parsing by user inserting an initial ' to the cell, so if you
type '--- it renders the desired ---

About the constants problem, well if you start by + or - it should allways
render a formula by appending a = to start of the cell.
In fact only negative constants are a problem since when a user needs to enter a
positive constant he normally does not need to enter a + because unsigned
constants are natural positives. So when a user starts with a + he is most
probably willing to really create a formula.

So I believe the users out there (me included) could live happily if our
negative constants got a = added to the start of the cell.

Again thank you very much,

Pedro A.
