The behavior I was dealing with is the same as found in the following 
forum thread and is apparently the standard behavior for formulas 
referring to a cell on a different sheet when the sheet is copied.  The 
use of absolute references is an easy resolution, but personally I find 
the behavior a little counter intuitive.  Overall I love calc and have 
been using it for years at home and have been advocating a change at the 
company I work for, but things like this make adoption harder to argue 
for.  When long term spreadsheet users find what appear to be problems 
with basic functions, it scares them off and the odds of getting a 
second look are slim.  I'm not advocating that calc be a clone of excel 
by any means, as there are some things that I prefer about calc, but 
some things should behave in the same manner.  Please keep up the good 
work and if there is anything I can do to help (I'm not a programmer) 
let me know.

Steps to reproduce problem:
1) Open attached spreadsheet
2) Copy Sheet 1 to the position after Sheet 2
3) Compare formulas between Sheet 1 and the copy (I expected them to be 
the same)

Thanks,
David
