[Lvlug] OO spreadsheet problem

Hi Gang,

I'm trying to use OO's spreadsheet as a time calculator. I can manually
enter date/time data, and add and subtract it to determine elapsed time
between entries. But that is time consuming.  So... I thought I could
automate it with "=NOW()". That seemed to work, but I just noticed when
ever I copy and paste that command into a new cell, all the previous
instances of "=NOW()" take on the new value too.

I tried using "Paste Special", but that doesn't seem to work, or I
haven't' found the right combination of options to get it to work.

Help, suggestions??
