However, that might lose the ability to parse such dates as currently the " de " is defined as LongDateDaySeparator, and the input is matched against separators followed by month names. Might need some massaging in parser code. > Note: The "de" preposition in front of year can also be contracted in some > cases, but the last year in past was 11, and the first year in future will > be 11000. So, we have time to achieve the perfect date format, :) I'm quite sure that I will not fix that in near future :) Eike -- LibreOffice Calc developer. Number formatter stricken i18n transpositionizer.
