User rainerbielefeld changed the following: What |Old value |New value ================================================================================ CC|'' |'rainerbielefeld' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Keywords| |needhelp, oooqa -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------- Additional comments from rainerbielef...@openoffice.org Fri Aug 21 06:34:25 +0000 2009 ------- I checked "Terms.xlsx" with "Ooo 3.1.0 WIN XP multilingual version German UI activated [OOO310m11 (Build 9399)]" and can confirm the reported effect. My OOo showed 2 decimals in A6, to decimals is setting for most of my CALC documents (and may be OOo CALC default?) Excel Viewer 12.0.6334.500 MSO 12.0.6333.5000 shows 9 decimals. It seems that OOo uses the settings that have been inserted in Menu 'Tools -> Options -> OOo Calc -> Calculate -> Decimal places' the last time, may be because there is no other information in "Terms.xlsx"? Steps to reproduce: 0. Dwonload and unpack "TestKit.zip" 1. Open "master3.ods" 2. In menu 'Tools -> Options -> OOo Calc -> Calculate -> Decimal places' modify entry from 3 to 4 3. Save document 4. Click "Link" to open "Terms1.xlsx" A6 will be shown with 4 decimals 11. Open "master7.ods" 12. In menu 'Tools -> Options -> OOo Calc -> Calculate -> Decimal places' modify entry from 7 to 6 13. Save document 14. Click "Link" to open "Terms6.xlsx" A6 will be shown with 6 decimals My knowledge is too poor to decide whether "Terms.xlsx" contains useful information concerning desired decimal places for cell A6, which should be used by OOo, or whether the current way OOo decides number of decimal places is the only way that can be handled (OOo can't know anything concerning an unknown user's EXCEL settings). Yo can see this using my "TestKit.zip", what contains 2 OOo documents with links to "Terms1.xlsx" and "Terms1.xlsx", what are identical copies of "Terms.xlsx". If No. of decimal places is important, user should have used cell formattings?! @sgreenhow: Please contribute information concerning your Platformand OS! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
