The number, I think will change with the date. i imagine its an internally generated number from the date. Number of somethings I guess.
I've only started using xcel recently and mainly for non mathamatical use, so dates can be rather important.

Removed the Cell Editor dialog in 33ec72a. Excel's own cell edit field can be read and navigated anyway.
Changes:
Milestone changed from None to 2011.2

While realising that this dialogue was put in a long time ago, I just wonder if people may find it confusing if its suddenly gone. Are there any implications to the user guide or other literatre from doing his. One assumes that f2 will revert to editing the field directly.

There was never any mention of this change in the User Guide. It did get accidentally removed in 2011.1 (and therefore wasn't documented in the What's New). I put it back for 2011.2 and now we're removing it again. :) However, this isn't a change from 2011.1, so it doesn't require a What's New entry.

Yes, f2 just pops up the normal Excel cell edit field.

Why did you reopen this? The issue reported here is fixed. The editor is now gone, so the dates will show up correctly.

Well it is even working in XP with Xcel 2002 now. Its actually far easier doing it in the field than in the dialogue..

If you think it is a different problem from the date, i can open a new ticket for it. the problem now that it is not very specifically related to date but still related to the editor. Dears, when I type anything in English, it is fine. As soon as i press shift+alt to write anything in Arabic, the tts doesn't detect anything in the editor. after that, when i want to go back to write anything in English again, it stops reporting anything too.

Ah. That's a very different issue. Please provide such info when you reopen a ticket in future. :)

We won't be able to fix that for this release. It is probably specific to RTL text and display model. Feel free to file a separate bug.

but my problem is not related to rtl.
as soon as i press f2 to edit the cell, nvda doesn't report anything when i use the arrow keys.
and the previous attached file shows that.
so i think it should be reopened again.

This is still a different bug. Please file another ticket with steps to reproduce. Also, it'd be great if you could attach a log to the new ticket with NVDA+f1 while still in the edit field. Thanks.
