            Bug ID: 55369
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
           Summary: FORMATTING fraction displayed and treated as dates
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: hom...@yahoo.com
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 3.6.1.2 release
         Component: Spreadsheet
           Product: LibreOffice

Problem description: 

Since version 3.6.xx a pre-formatted cell do not calculate the entered fraction
but applies the standard format rules to interpret the entry which results in
text display in cell (left aligned).
To replicate this do the following:
1) Format col A with cell format; Numbers Fraction "# ??/??"
2) enter in cell B1 =VALUE(A1)
3) copy B1 to B2:B10 
4) Enter the data according to table
HINT: Don't use the fractions 1/2, 1/4, 3/4. They result in symbols due to
autocorrect table.

Table for Fraction Format hehavior:
LO Version | Entry A | Cell Display | Input Line | B = Value(Ax)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
3.5.xx     | 1/8     |           1/8| 0.125      | 0.125
3.6.xx     | 1/8     | 1/8          | 1/8        | 40916 = 1/8/2012
3.5.xx     | 13/64   |         13/64| 0.203125   | 0.203125
3.6.xx     | 13/64   | 13/64        | 13/64      | Err502

LO3.5.xx does the right job. LO3.6.xx does not recognize the formatting 
for Fraction and interprets the entry as general format in this case tries to
make a Date out of it.

I set bug 53858 as duplicate. It had 2 different bugs described.
