Hi Steve,
I only have 4.0.1.2 installed, but my guess is that with the comma in
there, or possibly the dollar sign, or maybe both, when you are pasting
it, calc thinks it is text and not a number. That causes the left
alignment and not being dividable since text can't be divided.

Hi.
If I type or paste $2,441.99 into a cell in calc (3.6) it is left
aligned. If I right click format cell it states number-general.
If I divide it by 2 I get #value!
How do I get LO to recognise this as a number. I found a long winded
way, format it as currency and remove the ' that LO puts in front.
