Thank you! That was completely not the problem!

But it did point me to a settings menu I had not found (Open Office help sucks) and I did find a setting in there that was causing the problem. Why the default for a date form field would not be to just accept any date I have no idea.

Thanks very much for looking into it. Your searching was better than mine.
