Description xavxav 2010-12-28 16:40:46 UTC 
I noticed an error when I try a special past on a date on a Excel File.  In the Excel File, the format of the 
date is (DD/MM/YY).
1) I open in Calc a Excel File created with MS Excel for Mac
2) I import in Calc a CSV file with date in the European continental format (DD/MM/YYYY).
3) In the CSV file, I create a formula in a new Column (C) to get a pointer to the column (=B1) where B is 
the column with the dates. The value of the date is any date in 2010.
4) I copy the column C from the CSV file
5) I do a special past to the Excel File with the following  parameters checked : caracter strings + 
number + dates and hours.
6) The copied date in in 2014 and not in 2010.

I noticed that the problem does not occurs if I copy form a CSV file to a Open Office Classeur SXC file.
