            Bug ID: 131020
           Summary: Set Default Year for data entry with options
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 3.3.0 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: raymondm2 at mtaonline.net

Description:
Date Data entry excess work.  Exceed Excel here easily.
One can only enter month/day and autofill this year.

Add option in worksheet a default year, even a default month.

An alternate better but slightly more calculated option, would be to assume
last year used, last month used in the same column. This might come under an
Autofill feature group.  Thereby, by only typing the day of month, in a Date
formatted column would yield a completed Month/Day/Year entry.  

Steps to Reproduce:
Type Month and Day and Calc assumes this year, not the last year entered, even
if entered 100 times.  It makes you type every year that is not this year.  You
can change the computer date, only if you want to break internet pages and
other things like date saved etc.

Actual Results:
You must type full date every field if not this year.

Expected Results:
Would be great if data entry remembered last year entered, last month entered
in column.  That way if you had different date groups in different columns you
could have auto fill in each column. 


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Would be so cool if enter at the end of a row, could move down one row to the
beginning of the left column to enter next row of data, without coding a form.
