------- Additional comments from bul...@openoffice.org Mon Apr 26 11:36:19 +0000 2010 ------- In a table cell, you input only a number between parentheses, such as "(3)" or "(47)", this is automatically converted to the negative value without parentheses, such as "-3" or "-47", as soon as you move the cursor to another place in the document. This is an undesired behaviour, and i can't figure out how to impede it. I have encountered the problem on both the Mac and Linux. There is a similar issue with a number followed by a period, such as "3.". On my Mac, the period is removed when i move the cursor, while in Linux (where i might be running a slightly older version of OOo) the number is converted to something that looks like a date, in the format "03.04.10", but oddly, it is not today's date. This seems to have something to do with data display format, but i can't figure out how to change it. If the display format is set to "text", the problem still arises. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
