as of OO.o  2.0.2:

well, this issue might be closed - any reopened immidiatly - maybe.

1. Looking at this issue from the german point of view, it works partly, the
german Umlaute are opened correct (äöüÄÖÜß)

2. But this is done by using the codepage 850 (latin-1) by default. 
And that can not be changed, files will be opened with CP 850 even if you set CP
437 in the properties. 
So, only a few characters vary (mostly graphical characters), all german umlauts
have the same 8-bit-decoding in CP437 and CP850. No problem for me, but it looks
a little bit strange, to do settings, which are overruled by the default 
settings.

3. For some reason I do not undrstand sofar, my application will not read fileds
that should contain numeric values (!), the fieldlength seems to be improper.

4. supposed you have a "non-Standard-character" in a Calc-Sheet and want to save
it as DBF-file, the data-export will terminate un-completed (try it with
ALT-0169= ©). This might be one of the Unicode-problems of OO.o, I guess the
translation back to 8-bit does not work properly.

outcome for me: leave this issue open and ´have a look into it again.
