[discuss] Calc/Excel macros being broken

Thanks Johnny. This raises two questions:

1 - How easy would it be for the Calc 'save as XLS process' to convert
OOo Basic to VBA? If Calc can import VBA and interpret it, it seems at
least theoretically possible but I don't know of the practicalities or
knock-on side effects.

2 - What is the technical reason for the ODF specification not including
macros, but leaving them up to the vendor to decide upon?

From the answers to these come the issues of:
- "What do we do about organisations who are in the middle of a
migration between Calc and Excel, but the need for Macros prevents users
who have switched to Calc from sharing data with users still on Excel
(or vice-versa)?"
- "What about organisations who, for mission-specific purposes, have a
mixture of Excel and Calc and whose legacy Excel macros are causing
problems?"

Best wishes,

Clarke

[discuss] FORMAT SETTINGS HELP

To find the version of OpenOffice you are using look at >Help and >about
OpenOffice.org.

The format of the date is controlled by the format.

As an example open a spreadsheet with the date in it and select one cell
containing a date. Select >Format >Cells. A new window will pop up.
Click the tab showing Numbers (if it is not already being shown) and
then look at the Category column on the left hand side - that should
have Date highlighted. Now what are you showing under the language
column. I think you need to set that to English (South Africa) using the
drop-down menu and then see if the required date formats are available
as shown in the format column in the middle. Select the format and then
click OK and the cell should show the correct format. You can then
select as many cells containing dates to be the correct format.

Hope that helps

By the way, org is a general discussion list. For this
sort of question you should subscribe to org and ask

There is a limit to how much information can be packed into the internal
help function. More detailed information is provided by the "Getting
Started" and "User" guides, available for download and on-line viewing
from the "Documentation Project": http://documentation.openoffice.org/

I would also like to take this opportunity to mention that the "Authors
Project", who produce the guides, are one of the most active and hard
working areas of the OOo project and congratulate Jean Hollis Weber
(Authors Project Lead and Documentation Project Co-Lead) on her tireless
efforts to improve and expand the OOo documentation.
