--- Comment #14 from Eike Rathke <er...@redhat.com> --- Having taken a look at this and been trying: it makes no sense to display text content with the General or any other number format. Instead, when the input is not convertible to a number or date+time the Text format should be forced. Reason is, saving the field to file a text:user-field-decl can be _either_ a office:value-type="string" text field with a string-value, _or_ an office:value-type="float" numeric field with value. While text:user-field-get theoretically could have a number style:data-style-name to a string text field applied and ignore it (then why even bother having the style), most implementations presumably would not handle that. Forcing an office:value-type="string" text field would be clean. Writer's field handling isn't quite straight forward not to say convoluted.. someone familiar can debug that into existence.. Hints are SwUserFieldType, SwSetExpField and SwFieldVarPage::SubTypeHdl() and all nsSwGetSetExpType::GSE_STRING handling. Good luck.. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
