------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Oct 24 09:50:55 -0700 2006 ------- I create a document in Writer and put a date field in. I change the format to be MMMM DD, YYYY (December 31, 1999). If I save as ODT, no problem. I save as RTF and it sets the format to tt.mm.yy, which even OpenOffice doesn't know what to do with it when you close and then re-open the RTF file. Since Microsoft Word doesn't know what to do with that format either, I am assuming it is an error in the RTF export filter. I will attach a zip file that contains the ODT file with a date field and the resulting RTF file when you do a save as RTF from Writer. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
