A problem with the 64-bit version of OpenOffice calc
See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=400151
Some of the computations return 0 in the 64-bit version, but work OK in the 32-bit version.
The fix is to make sure your are using a version >= 2.3.0.

upgrading
Upgrading is really easy. You may be able to do it through yum. Or, you can download the tarball from openoffice.org, untar it, and run the setup script.
