Dear Richard,

I think you will find that if you copy the cell in the original spreadsheet 
normally, then in the spreadsheet you want to paste the information into use 
the Paste Special command in the Edit Menu instead of doing a standard paste, 
and in the window that opens select what you want to be pasted, e.g. in this 
case (if I have correctly understood) “Paste Value”, or maybe it’s “Paste 
Number”, I’m going from memory here, and I’m currently using LO, and OO and LO 
do it a little differently, so the details may not be exactly as I have 
outlined, but the fundamental is to use Paste Special instead of a normal 
paste. And it is not limited to copying single cells, you can copy a selected 
group of cells. This works not only between OpenOffice spreadsheets and between 
OpenOffice and LibreOffice, I also routinely paste data from Google Sheets to 
OO or LO using Paste Special to get it from another person’s Android phone to 
my records.

If I’ve understood your problem correctly I think this should solve your 
problem.

Peter.
