Eike, it does not seem correct to me.
The source csv file contains data such as 1.8526 The user does not know about that data, they only know what they see when it is imported. The original problem remains that this data 1.8526 is imported and displayed as a "date". For example with "Italian" the csv import dialog displays standard column "1.8526" but the imported spreadsheet stored value is "01.01.8526". If I select that cell it displays Sum="01.01.8526". The correct default (standard?) behaviour surely must be to import and display the data exactly as it is stored in the csv source file? I was not the reporter for this but I will make an IZ issue and put some screenshots which will make it clearer. thanks jim On Sat, Feb 07, 2004 at 01:56:19AM +0100, Eike Rathke wrote: > This looks like correct behavior then.
