Description Jukka R 2012-06-23 14:47:46 UTC 
using O-O 3.3 I found the following bug:
Type e.g an 18.th century date like March 11. 1778 (1778-03-11), and you get output 1778-03-10 , and 1790-03-01 becomes 1790-02-28. But 17th century dates, e.g. 1678-03-01 give correct outputs. Not so funny!

I cannot confirm it with AOO3.4.

Please try entering dates with the newly released AOO3.4

Please try entering dates with setting the locale to English (UK).

Please specify your operating system.

not UK but USA

I tried with OOo 3.3.0, Windows XP, en_US locale.  I was not able to get the bug to show up.

I tried both YYYY-MM-DD input as well as US-style MM/DD/YYYY

But the original report sounds plausible enough (leap year calculation?).

Is anyone able to reproduce?

It's a strange problem, I can reproduce problem in two Windows 7 environment but cannot reproduce it on other environment. I'll do further investigate on it.

I have try it on Win7 machine.
First my OS time zone as UTC+8:00 time zone beijing time, this issue will repro.

Then i close AOO and quickstarter, I change  OS time zone as UTC time zone London time, this issue can't repro.

So this maybe related current OS time zone.

Change bug to confirm status.
