------- Additional comments from j...@openoffice.org Sun Apr 18 19:36:54 +0000 2010 ------- I also spent several hours with this issue. Why was this marked as invalid? The "Number formatting" under tables is not a logical place to look for anyone having this issue with writer. Even if it's not a bug, it is unquestionably a poor design choice. I agree with others that when a feature is so aggressive as to get in the way of normal use (and this one absolutely does), it should be disabled by default. Also, with calc values which aren't even supposed to be dates get magically changed into dates. This may be appropriate if the cell is marked as "Date", but otherwise calc would do better to leave it alone. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
