Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 88474
date and time format not localized in Calc doc sharing messages
Last modified: 2014-01-28 07:54:07 UTC
In the new CWS calcshare2, the date and time are not localized. I expect MM/DD/YYYY but get DD.MM.YYYY. I've seen it in two dialogs: "Document is in Use" and "Share Document"

I have the same problem with the spreadsheet. The default format for date (Right click on cell -> format cell -> numbers -> category -> date) is not localised to the system date format. I am using OOO310m11 under windows xp.
I think ahung's problem is somthing completely different, will be ignored. NOT reproducible with "AOO 4.0.1 – German UI / German locale [Rev. 1524958 2013-09-20 11:40:29]" on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit)", “historic” 4.0 User Profile used for all predecessor versions. A German Language document with German Localization shows German Date Time format in document info Dialog what appears after menu 'Tools -> Share document' NOT reproducible with server installation of "AOO 4.1.0-Dev – English UI / English locale - [AOO410m1(Build:9750) - Rev. 1537973 - 2013-11-03]" on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit)", own separate user profile. An English Language document with English Localization shows English Date Time format in document info Dialog what appears after menu 'Tools -> Share document' Fixed in between, or may be users expectations are wrong? @aziem: Thank you for your feedback – unfortunately important information we will need to reproduce your problem is missing. Please add all information requested in following: a) Write a meaningful Summary describing exactly what the problem is b) Attach a sample document (not only screenshot) or refer to an existing sample document in an other Bug with a link; to attach a file to this bug report, just click on "Add an attachment" right on this page. c) Contribute a document related step by step instruction containing every key press and every mouse click how to reproduce your problem d) Attach screenshots with comments if you believe that that might explain the problem better than a text comment. Best way is to insert your screenshots into a DRAW document and to add comments that explain what you want to show e) if possible contribute an instruction how to create a sample document from the scratch f) add information f1) what EXACTLY is unexpected. f2) and WHY do you believe it's unexpected (cite Help or Documentation!) f3) concerning your PC f4) concerning your Operating System (Version, Distribution, Language) f5) concerning your AOO version (with Build/revision ID if it's not a public release) and localization (UI language, Locale setting) f6) AOO settings that might be related to your problems (video hardware acceleration, ...) f7) how you launch AOO and how you opened the sample document f9) Whether that worked in former OOO / AOO Versions Even if you can not provide all demanded information, every little new information might bring the breakthrough. Please do not cite these hints in your reply, but cite the items like: c): Yes, also in CALC, not in Impress
