** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: openoffice.org
  
- When the cell format is set to "Fraction" or "scientific" it will display 
minus zero (which doesn't make much sense), for instance:
- Let A1 be -1 and A2 be 0
- If A3 is =A1*A2 then the answer given is:
- in fraction mode   ==> -0 (minus zero)
- in scientific mode ==> -0,00E+000
