Hello, All:
When I copy a date from one LO spreadsheet to another, it changes.
Specifically, I have *.ods files DateProblem2add.ods and
DateProblemMerge.ods. The first contains only 2013-05-30 in cell A1.
The second contains only 2012-12-9 in cell A1. I copy the first date

would be an enhancement, and that it's worth that person's time to
implement it. The latter can be facilitated by providing working code

Just to ensure I have read this thread correctly, the problem
happens only on one computer and only on different drives attached to
that computer.
Have you noticed other problems on that computer? If no, then I
think it is probably corruption in the installation of LibreOffice.
