Description Andreas Blochberger 2017-12-11 13:48:02 UTC
Description:
See attached example. In cell B1 a value of "100%" is given. In cell C1 the formula: =A1/B1*100% 

The original sheet was opened from an XLSX. Sometimes the error occurs, but sometimes it does not.

When one tries to enter such a formula, LO replaces 100% with 1 automatically. 

Steps to Reproduce:
Open the attached sheet

Actual Results:  
The 100% does not work.

Expected Results:
It should be interpreted as 1 


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Investigating.
Comment 4 Eike Rathke 2017-12-11 17:03:44 UTC
This happens only if the percent immediately follows a number, not an expression like (99+1)%, which is related to the fact that on manual input 100% is converted to 1.
