Fair enough. Scratch the input box idea then. That was just an idea
anyway (a bad one).
Never mind. It would be annoying if you only had good ideas ;-)
With typing in dates, once you know how it works and /or set your cell
formatting / styles correctly, it is OK.
The only problems, AFAIAC, arise when pasting data in a spreadsheet...
This problem also arises when importing from a csv file, where Calc
accidentally interprets a text value such as '11-12' as date. Now, that
text value alone may be interpreted as a date in some context, but that
interpretation will not always be correct in all contexts.
That is correct, of course.
How about problems when entering by key board?
If those are rare, maybe an option to turn of auto-date by
importing/pasting is enough?
Might not be 100% perfect (still something to learn when entering dates)
but (thinking about Eike's rough outline of the complexity) is
relatively easy to implement.
Regards,
Cor
