Description Larry Johnson 2013-02-12 22:58:00 UTC 
A well used calc spread sheet created in a version prior to 3.6.5.2 returns as display in cell the text of the formula whenever the formula has been edited, and not the value of the formula calculation. Unedited formulas still return values (until edited).

Menu:Tools→Options⇒Options(Popup)⇝LibreOff Calc⇝View:Display:Formula Box is unchecked. Toggling this has no effect, except that text of formulas are displayed for all formulas when the box is checked.

Re-entering formula even using formula wizard has no effect.

The calc sheet has multiple sheets and cross sheet references.

This seems to be an aspect of the "Not all user settings imported" problems with 3.6 -> 4.0 updates?
Comment 10 Larry Johnson 2013-04-11 19:23:01 UTC 
This bug has been resolved (no longer occurs) in the latest version.
Comment 11 Rainer Bielefeld Retired 2013-04-11 20:55:08 UTC 
So WFM for now

@Larry Johnson:
Please feel free to reopen this bug if you find out that the problem still exists with the current stable LibreOffice version and if you can contribute requested additional information
