--- Comment #2 from orcmid <[email protected]> ---
It does not make sense that one can enter a date and then a different date is
shown for the cell.  The input and output conversions should be symmetrical for
dates, no matter what the origin date is.  That is, the same origin day (e.g.,
1899-12-30 or 1900-01-01) should apply in both directions, and any leap-year
correction should also.  If this is not changed while working on the sheet,
there should be no input-output discrepancy.

This smells like a bug.

Also, having the defect appear in this particular range is very strange.  If it
is about the 1900 leap-year tweak, what happens with 29 February 1900 should be
evident.

Nicolay,

 1. Are you working in .ods format or are you starting/saving-in a different
format?

 2. Under Tools > Options > OpenOffice Calc > Calculate which date origin is
selected: 1899-12-30, 1900-01-01, or 1904-01-01?

 3. What are the actual forms of the dates that you enter and that are then
displayed.  That is, do you use "14 July 1919" and see "13 July 1919" or are
the actual entered and displayed values different than those.  Be specific.

 4. For one of the cells that shows the defect, when you select the cell and
Format > Cells ... what is the Category and "Format code" for the cell?
