I’m creating a large text table in LibreOffice Writer in which numerals do occur but only as text and are never to be used for calculations. However, when I close and reopen the table all the text in cells that also contain a zero (as part of a label) disappears, leaving only the zero. This does NOT happen to other cells containing numerals OTHER THAN zero.
The problem happens if I do not first, every single time I close the table, select the entire table, go to “number format” under “table,” and re-select either format numbers as text or as user-defined. That works. However, I’d of course prefer to be able to format everything in the table as text once and not have to do it every time I close the table.
Any ideas?
