Moving beyond OOo 3.2.1

2014-09-26 Thread Don Daugherty
I've been clinging to version 3.2.1 of OOo and I'd  really prefer to 
move from OOo 3.2.1 (2010) to 4.1.1 (2014)!


My problem is that many of my spreadsheets don't work in the newer 
versions.  I use a lot of linking to html files containing dates that 
3.2.1 and before recognized as dates but which 3.3 and beyond treat as 
text.   I could insert extra columns containing VALUE() functions to 
overcome the change, but that's a lot of editing and would lead to 
larger, more complex spreadsheets.


Is there a setting or option somewhere in the new versions to make them 
treat these dates as dates rather than as simple text?
