Description notlyh 2009-03-07 09:32:30 UTC 
Hi,

Using openSuSE 11.0 and OOo 3(Build 9358).

I have a Calc file that allows me to monitor my ADSL usage. This file has a
total of 22 sheets that include data or charts.

The procedure is as follows:
1. I copy the data from my ISP usage stats and then paste them into a Calc
sheet.all the numbers and formats are fine and the formulae I have to use the
ISP values to obtain the total monthly usage reflect the data correctly

2. I then copy the  last day's usage, using the mouse and keyboard keys, and
   paste it into another sheet on the same file.
     On occassions OOo doesn't copy the selected text and I am presented with a
     box stating that there is no data to paste OR it pastes text from an
     earlier copy.

3. The total figures from my Data Sheet are also copied using the kb and mouse
   and then the Paste special command is used to only paste the numbers and
   formats.
     Very often I either get the error that there is nothing to paste or on
     selecting 'paste special' all the first block of boxes are selected
     despite me previously ensuring only Paste numbers and Formats are checked.
4. Linking the data cells to the destination cells results in blank cells being
   displayed?

The Calc file is available to anyone who wants it from hylton at conacher dot co
dot za as I do not seem to be able to upload it onto Issue Tracker.

When trying to copy and special paste 3 cells from one sheet to another I get an
error message that says: Unknown source. In the selection it says 'unformatted
text'. clicking OK requires me to re-copy the cells and hope that the Paste
Special will work this time.
