I have a problem.  this has do do with the use of a em dash "-" versus the 
forward slash "/" in within the Calc program.

My specific problem has to do with telephone numbers and how they are 
formatted.  At the present moment I am using "xxx - xxx" and I wish to change 
them and use the "xxx/xxx" format.

How can I do this?

Christian:

First, this is an international mailing list where Englisch is used.  However, 
I think I understand your problem.

This is possible, if you change the format of the field from General to Text 
only.  Otherwise, when you input any two numbers with the forward slash in 
them, OpenOffice.org will treat this as a mathematical calculation and give you 
the result.

Try this and let us know what happens.

Tchuess!
