Sigh.
Well, I could have spent time rebuilding the macro (which really means
spending time relearning how to build a macro) but I found an extension
that inserts "fixed values" for date or time. I was inserting @now which
includes both date and time, and in the long run is more useful for
calculations. But I can get along with just inserting the current time
for the purposes of this time sheet spreadsheet.
