--- Comment #2 from roland@greentree.systems --- >From what you are indicating, it then seems that datevalue() should know all data formats. Is that realistic? Maybe it's time then to integrate the datevalue() code with the code that does the validation of input? Or to let them both use the same logic at least. After digging through the many posts about problems with datevalue() that search engines return and apparet lack of understanding for dates in general in LO in many of these, this would probably be a sensible move? I seems logical to me that having a user editable list of formats that datavalue() would recognise, should be based on a couple of universal formats (as it is now) and furthermore on whatever a user specifies in the Date Acceptance Patterns settings. For now, at least an update to the documentation about this would help to clarify the current state of affairs. (I wish I were a proficient dev, then I would make these changes myself and submit them :-) ) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
