Date and Sum functions (HELP)
 

I've put together a spread sheet, it works good the problem is when I
put in something like +6 / +16 it automatically does the formula for it
and when I put something like 10/10 it will put the date in as 10-Oct.
How do I make the spread sheet take the data as entered and not do this
formatting for me.

Have you made sure that the cell is formatted for numbers, and not
dates?
