Dates on spreadsheet showing incorrectly when previewed
I am sharing a spreadsheet prepared in Office Libre with some colleagues. When viewed on the Web dates prior to 1900 are replaced by ******* The dates do show correctly if the sheet is downloaded.

That was the first thing I thought of but most of the data is in the form dd mm yyyy and when the year is > 1899 it displays. When the year is earlier than 1900 it doesn't display. it is not a width problem. For instance, 16 May 1828 has the same number of characters as 14 Jun 1916. The first is not shown, the second is.
