Hi Walter

I assume you mean "Calc" when you say "excel".
Your question might be more suited for ask.libreoffice, and if you think it is a bug, for bugs.documentfoundation.org. What you see is the difference between the use of the "straight" apostrophe at the beginning of a cell's content (which can be used to force it to be displayed "as is" instead of understood as a formula or a number) and an autocorrect rule (replacing a "straight" apostrophe by the corresponding locale's typographic apostrophe or quotation mark). Feel free to turn the autocorrect rule off in Tools > AutoCorrect options > Localized options > Single quotes.

If you have further questions, please go to ask.libreoffice as this mailing list is for discussing development.

Thank you!

Dear developer, the following error happens at least in the German /Swiss German language.
Observations :
- when i type an apostrophe in an empty excel field, it appears an apostrophe = correct

- when i write any word in an empty excel field, and i add an apostrophe,
  then it appears NOT an apostrophe, but a ">" at the end of the word.

- when i write any word in an empty excel field, and i add an empty space and an apostrophe,
  then it appears NOT an apostrophe, but a "<" at the end of the word.

Note : in the German language we often add an apostrophe followed by a letter "s", at genitives.



Please would you repair this error.
Have a nice day.
