Hi Kieth,
For years I have suffered as
1. numbers are turned to dates
is it really a number you want to input or do you use a number format ?
2. phone numbers are altered
In this case you can start your cell entry using a single quote
character. A trailing single quote character will handle the cell
content as a string not as a number.
3. lower case data is changed to identical higher case data (eg: data
to DATA(when DATA is a separate piece of
data that i typed than the lower case))
I have to confess this can be odd but it really is a feature of Calc to
autocorrect the way you once wrote a string within another input cell
within a column. You can turn this behavior off within the tools menu.
"/tools/cell content/auto input" (or something like that - I use a
German localization)
4. If I type Scone then i can not write s, sc, sco, or scon in the same
field without my data being altered to the full word scone.
same as above
Kind regards, Joost
