Hi!

My mother-in-law does a research in her family roots. She found this bug from
OpenOffice Spreadsheet / Calc application while feeding in 18st century dates
from some other source.

This is the data she put in, the first two sections are dates in Finnish format
and others are birthplaces and person names:

03.12.1755      15.12.1755      Saresmäki               Isaac Pussinen  Anna 
Kerätär    Carin
07.09.1758      18.09.1758      Saresmäki               Isaac Pussinen  Anna 
Kerätär    Isaac
12.04.1760      19.04.1760      Saaresmäk               Isaac Pussinen  Anna 
Kerätär    Andreas
24.05.1763      20.06.1763      Saaresm.        J. 53 No 6 Sivola       Isaac 
Pussinen  Ann. Kerätär    Anna
27.03.1764      18.06.1764      Saaresm.        J. 53 No 6 Sivola       Isaac 
Pussinen  Ann Kerätär 
Christina (nd.)
21.03.1766      11.04.1766      Saresm.         J. 53 No 6 Sivola       Isaac 
Pussinen  Anna Kerätär    Anna
19.04.1773      01.07.1773      Saresmäki               Isaac Pustinen  Anna 
Kerätär    Sara (conf.)

So everything is fine as long as the cells are not formatted. But when she
changed the format of the first columns to be dates, all those dates were
changed - 1 day, for example teh dates in first row changed to be 02.12.1755 and
14.12.1755. No matter if this same data is copy-pasted or hand-written, the same
thing happens.

She studied this a bit and discovered that the prolem is in dates 25.07.1790 and
26.07.1790. These both have same values:

date            value() 
23.07.1790      -39970  
24.07.1790      -39969  
25.07.1790      -39968  
25.07.1790      -39968  (input 26.7.1790 into the cell manually)
26.07.1790      -39967  (input 27.7.1790 into the cell manually)
28.07.1790      -39966  
29.07.1790      -39965  

Seems that it is impossible to write 26.07.1790 as it is being changed to
25.07.1790 and all dates since that are wrong. She did not find out if this
problem vanishes after some other year.

I'm not really sure about the exact version she has, it is 3.1 something with
Finnish language pack. It was the latest version that was available in May 2010
when we installed it to her new laptop.

BR,

Hannu
