I have a column of numbers I want to enter into a calc column.

One of the numbers is 127.700 (for instance).

So, I copy the number and paste it into the desired column. But, when I
go back and check the contents of the column, it reads 127.7 instead!!!

And, if I search the spreadsheet for 127.700, there are no hits!!!!

I tried formatting the column to show 3 significant numbers after the
decimal point, which looks good....but when I check the actual contents
of that cell, it is still 127.7!!! And, I still can't search for 127.700
(no hits)!

I tried turning off the autocomplete, no change.

It seems like calc has some sort of deliberate action to inhibit
entering of trailing zero's (after the decimal point).

How do I turn off this "feature"???

When I copy and paste 117.000 into a cell, I expect to see 117.000 when
I examine the contents of the cell. I actually don't have a problem with
how the number is displayed in the spreadsheet, but when I search for
the number I entered into the column, I need to get hits on 117.000 when
I search for 117.000.
