I'm confused. I'm using OO 2.2 on Win XP Pro.

If I enter "www.openoffice.org" without the quotes into a Calc cell then (a)
it shows up in blue on a grey background and (b) if I click in the cell my
web browser fires up and goes to that page.

If I enter "=hyperlink("www.openoffice.org")" without the *outer* quotes,
then neither of those things happens. The "link" is dead although the mouse
pointer changes to a hand when hovered over the cell.

What is happening here please?
