Description rubindj 2005-03-31 15:30:46 UTC 
OO Spreadsheet does not recongize the + key as initiating formulas.  The
functionality does exist when you press the = key.

Since Visicalc on the old DOS Machines, and including Lotus 1-2-3, Quatro, and
Excel, the + key, espcially on the numeric keypad, has initiated a formula
entry.  Currently, OO recongizes it as an alpha key rather than numeric.

This is a problem users who are used to using the + key to develop spreadsheets.
 This one inlcluded :).  This is one of those features that (I think) would be
easy to implement, and make Excel users much happier.
