Default Can not put date in cell

Hi,

I am trying to transform at lotus-worksheet to excel, simply by opening
the file in excel and saving as xls (which normally works just fine).

When I try to enter a date in one of the cells I get the following
error message:
"The formula you typed contains an error".

Anyone know why I get this, and how it can be fixed? I do not enter any
equal sign or something that should make the cell believe I am trying
to enter a formula. Using Format-Cells and choosing Date does not help
either.

Brgds,
