Description john.marmion 2003-08-08 18:41:48 UTC 
This is a result of the investigation into issue 15367. Now that this is fixed
the remaining problem is that Calc assumes that format types of the DDE Matrix
columns C2, D2 etc are dates rather than numeric. This seems to be because the
first field in the matrix (A2) is a date. Use the attached doc from issue 15367.
This is not related to the Excel filter as this behaviour is also present in
Calc docs with Matrix data.

That's right, the data type of the number format is inherited from the
upper left corner, as this is mostly what is wanted for array
formulas. However, in the case of DDE arrays this is arguable.

Developer notes: later.
2.0 only if time permits.
