> I don't  know how you enter the AVERAGE() formula in lower case

Type:
 = average()
everything in lower case ;-)

Now, joking aside, I do not have the original Excel file anymore. However, I may
think that the following went wrong: for some reason, Excel did mark the column
as text and did not evaluate the string entered. Can somebody check, IF the
ODS-file does contain indeed a text entry?

Even then, a text entry should start with a ('), which it doesn't.


I wonder also, why Calc does not test IF the new entry is something different.

Now, let's go to row 79 and type:
 = su
auto-completion suggests SUM, but when we enter SUM(...), nothing gets computed.
The entry is still interpreted as plain text.

Even entering a number, will make it text: try with 123

Enter in A80:
 123
It gets formatted to the left, like text. Then write in cell D80:
 = A80 + 1
You get 1, strange! This is because text '123' is interpreted as 0 in Calc. The
funny thing is, 123 is really 123 and NOT '123 !!!
