This is really starting to infuriate me...

Why, when working in an .ods spreadsheet, if I copy a number from a
cell, and go to paste>special it into another cell, does it often (not
every time, still can't pin it down) sometimes come up with the only
op[tion as 'Unformatted text' from 'Unknown source'???

This is insane!

I have had this problem off and on when copy/pasting numbers between
.csv files and .ods spreadheets, but even then it isn't every time.

What is going on here?

If you're in edit mode (e.g. by pressing F2, double clicking a cell, or copying from the input bar above the spreadsheet), the text is copied as plain text, and you get the option to paste as "Unformatted text" from "Unknown source".

If you click a cell or select a range of cells, you then get the options to paste formulas, values etc.

Could this be what's happening?

Hope that helps.

Mark.
