I'm a bit confused by the issue as described. When I open a new Calc
file in OOo 3.0, with no special template or formatting, and enter
"8.5", it does not get turned into a date, or anything else. It just
goes in as 8.5.
Exactly what is interpreted as a date from input to Calc is
locale-dependent. The original questioner and you probably have
different locale settings.
I trust this helps.
