            Bug ID: 58962
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: EDITING: Editing cell properties
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux (All)
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
        Whiteboard: BSA
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 3.5.7.2 release
         Component: Spreadsheet
           Product: LibreOffice

Problem description: Cannot change a date-formatted cell to be number
formatting

Steps to reproduce:
1. Set 1 column of, say, 20 cells to be any date format
2. Create some dates, and other cell content
3. Highlight a block of 2x3 cells (including 3 of the date-formatted cells)
4. Use Format > Cells to set those 6 cells to a numeric format
5. Click OK


Current behavior: The format of the date cells does not change. Enter 25 in one
of those cells, press Enter, and it displays 1/24/1900. 

There isn't even a way to delete the date formatting. The Delete button merely
deletes the contents, and Edit > Delete Cells deletes the entire row or column.

No Office suite will be accepted by the horde of MS Office users unless and
until every simple function is intuitive, and works out-of-the-box. Changing
the formatting of a previously-formatted cell certainly qualifies as a simple
function.

Expected behavior: The cell formatting should change.

Operating System: Fedora
Version: 3.5.7.2 release
