Description Unknown 2003-07-19 01:27:38 UTC 
When I type 30:22 into a cell, it turns into 30:22:00.  I don't want the cell to
say 30:22:00.  I want the cell to say 30:22.

Presumably, the way to prevent the spreadsheet application from altering the
text that I type would be via an option under Format -> AutoFormat.  But
AutoFormat is "grayed out."

I've looked through other dialogs (Format -> Conditional Formatting, Tools ->
AutoCorrect, Tools -> Options, Tools -> Configure, etc...) but can't find any
way to make OO leave my text alone.

Is this a bug?  Is there a way to enable my selection of the AutoFormat menu
item?  Will the AutoFormat dialog even provide a way for me to disable this
behavior?

Also, the Undo command should undo the autoformatting (but leave my text in
place); however in searching through the bug database, I see that this also is a
bug, as it currently just deletes the text that I typed.

Hm, it's been 2 weeks...

Doesn't anyone else have this problem?  Has anyone seen this issue?
