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 :)
