Thanks for your answer. The comparison with Linux was done by a collegue of 
mine, who uses the latest version downloaded from the OOo website. I don't see 
why that version would interpret the cell as a value, where the version under 
WinXP interprets the content as text. My first presumption was such a 
misinterpretation, so I made sure the cells were formatted as number by 
selecting them, and through the menu using Format-Cells, Category "Number". 
Apparently this does not "force" the contents of the cell to become numerical?
Finally another test I did was exporting the file as MS Excel 97/2000/XP file, 
then opening it in MS Excel 2003. There the conversion of string to number 
takes place automatically.
