The pattern is just a prerequisite, if the number input doesn't form a valid date it doesn't lead to a date even if the pattern was matched, so anything like 32.13 already wouldn't be a valid date. > Actually, it'd be better to have possibility of switching off the > feature altogether, "across the installation", as the traditional > fractional part separator /comma/ tends quite often to be > substituted by the /dot/, in these times. I'm not sure I understand. If you're saying that people tend to input decimal numbers as #.# instead of #,# then better not define the D.M date acceptance pattern to prevent confusion, and a #.# input will just be a textual string. Is that what you meant? > Historically, it was often D/M (D in Arabic numerals, M in Roman). With roman numbers that wouldn't work. We could define a D/M pattern, but input would have to be in Arabic numerals. Eike -- LibreOffice Calc developer. Number formatter stricken i18n transpositionizer.
