I think sheet names are saved as they are created. Sheet name string gives sheet a name in _moment of creation_ of new empty document and so the names are saved. It's quite logical, that existing sheet names will not change when changing UI language, because you can have formulas or references containing sheet names. This string (translated or not) affects only new spreadsheets, created by current version. ain --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
