If I enter a quantity it errors out in the cell that does the calcs. This works on a brand new invocation of scalc, then open the spreadsheet, go full screen, enter 1 quantity - error. Do the same thing but don't go full screen and it works fine. > If you just type a single text character or a digit, > for instance?

Is it possible that you are doing this? There is no looping back on itself.

If I knew what was causing it I'd test it, but I've got so much going on in the spreadsheet that its tough to guess what might be the cause. > Otherwise you could send the list a lot more detail of the problem, > for example, your operating system and the version of OpenOffice you Fedora Core 4 and 6 with OO 2.0 > are using, as well as what sort of data you are entering I enter the number 1 in a cell to have it get multiplied by a price. > and what is > in any referenced cells.
