------- Additional comments from u...@openoffice.org Thu Jan 29 16:21:08 +0000 2009 ------- Hello, There is Problems in Calc dealing with the Hijri date. for example if I entered 1/1/1430 I'll get 1/1/30. that is right if I entered Gregorian date (even thought I don't like this format :) ) but I entered Hijri date, so I go right click >> format cell... >> language: Arabic >> format:24/9/1420 >> I get this :6/04/833 it looks like this feature works like date converter from Gregorian to Hijri while it shouldn't. on an Arabic local: if I enter: 1/1/1430 it will show like 6/04/833 1/1/2009 it will show 5/01/1430 (١٤٣٠/٠١/٥) Which means that the date is forced to be entered in Greg I've talked on #dev.openoffice.org and was advised to use ' before the date. well this is not a solution because it will make the date into a string which can't be manipulated as a date formatting the cell should contain the expected input date regards :) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
