I should add that I also tried to use the german functions heute() and jetzt() 
in a macro but got the same error messages in both cases. But these functions 
work in formulas of a cell.

I looked up the OpenOffice help and found that there is a now function of OO 
Basic as well (but this function does not require "()", this functions works as 
both "now" and "now()"). Perhaps now works on my system only because OO Basic 
is able to handle it.

It seems that the problem is far more worse at least in the german version. I 
tried a second calc function: GEOMEAN(number_1; number_2; ... number_30). This 
function does not work too! Also the corresponding german function GEOMITTEL() 
does not work in Calc. Its a standard function what does not require an AddIn.

On the contrary the function abs(number) works! This function has the same name 
in the english as well as in the german version. It seems that no one standard 
Calc function works in the german version of OOO 310m19 as far as the name of 
this function was changed in the german version!!!

If you think that it is really important to translate function names in locale 
versions then one set of the functions with the original english names should 
be preserved. Hopefully does Microsoft never get the idea to translate its 
standard library or .NET functions into german! No one source code will 
translate any more!
