Integer 22 is the 21/01/1900.
Entering only the number 22 with a date format show the 22nd day since the 
origine date.

With Excel, you have 22/01/1900 cause for Excel 1900 is a leap year (false of 
corse).
It is an Excel bug, not a Calc bug.
So if you enter a date betxeen 1/1/1900 and 1/3/1900 you got a gap of 1 day.

GerardF, thanks for having a look at it. This resolution is confirmed
via Microsoft's article "Excel 2000 incorrectly assumes that the year
1900 is a leap year": http://support.microsoft.com/kb/214326
