Hello,
Here are my thoughts written after the sign in response to Brian Barker's
ideas:
Spreadsheets generally used for calculation, so preventing it would usually be
considered a
drawback, not an advantage. You could put text
values into word processor tables instead. But chacun à son
Hello and happy new year!
At last, I knew how my colleagues strongly believed and what they wanted to
achieve.
They wanted a date format which works across all known free, paid, old and new
versions of spreadsheet program, e.g. LibreOffice Calc.
They decided to use .MM.DD. and MM.DD., e.g.

Hi :)
Sounds like a good fail-safe, so that users are not bound by rigid
restrictions but the displayed figures are always consistently correct.
I suspect that you can even enter much shorter numbers for dates within the
year, such as;
12.31
getting corrected to;
2014.12.31
I'm not sure if you
Hello all,
Thanks for following up.
A quick recap: I was looking for the .MM.DD format. The user inputs it as
it looks, e.g. 2015.01.01. (LibreOffice Calc should recognise it as a date.)

Hello all,
In a spreadsheet, I need the dot separated date in .MM.DD format, e.g.
2015.01.012015.12.11
Should I file a bug report to add this feature? Is it currently not available?
Please advise. Thanks.

I think it is already available.
You have to change the cell format (date type) in .MM.DD, nothing
more

In the Format Cells dialogue, you can create your own User-defined
formats. Just enter your .MM.DD in the Format code box there.

Hello all,
When I enter 2015.01.01, it is recognized not as a date. How do I make it one
step only? I enter it and it is detected as a date.
01-01-2015 is recognized as a date. Then I need to format this. Two steps are
required.

I tried this, which seem to work: specifying the cell format with a custom
format .MM.DD. When I input a date in this form, it is kept this way,
and is recognized as a date (possible to use it in formula).
Is that not enough? Maybe I misunderstood the question.

Hi all:
I think you need to use this format: /MM/DD

I suspect you would have more success using the ISO format of
-MM-DD instead of a non-standard format.

Hi :)
If the formatting is set to display the date in the way that you want then
when you type in;
19/12
then it should display as
19.12.2014
(or whatever your formatting is for dates).
So if you have a whole column, or row of dates then it's not really a 2
step process, more like (n+1)/n steps

Aha! This is a different question: you need Calc to recognise your
entered text as a date, to convert the text string to the internal
number
