------- Additional comments from wo...@openoffice.org Sun Aug 8 16:27:27 +0000 2010 ------- I tried with a clean new user account and could not reproduce this problem. After tweaking all kinds of language settings, I found what triggered the problem. I used customized British English locale settings (under 'Formats' in 'Language & Text'). Setting this to Dutch made the problem go away. Making changes to the Dutch settings does not seem to trigger any problems, switching back to my British English locale settings reintroduces the problem. I run a recent clean install of Snow Leopard. The same problem occurred on Leopard before the reinstall, so I assume the problem is caused by a corrupted file in my home directory, but I do not know which one. Since my home directory and settings have in use since Tiger and more people experience this problem, it might also be caused by an old locale settings file that for some reason is incompatible with Leopard and Snow Leopard. If others can confirm the problems go away by changing their locale settings, this bug can probably be closed. I also noticed that a tab completions issue in the zsh commandline shell went away after these changes, so OOo is not the only package affected by this bug. I do not know whether OOo can force the file system charset in the code, this could prevent the problem from occurring and should not cause problems, since all OSX system use the same encoding as far as I know. On the other hand I'm not 100% sure this will not introduce others problems and the number of people affected seems small. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
