Hi Laurent,
It's nice and funny to meet you here :-) .
why time consuming ?
It's time consuming in Calc because I have to apply numeric formats when Excel
automatically recognizes numbers, dates, ... If I don't apply numeric formats,
an English
locale gives the decimal separator I expect but an unwanted thousands separator
as well.
did you try to modify your default template (done only once) as i
suggested you ?
You said
"Maitenant, je pense qu'en modifiant le style des cellules numérique comme tu
le désires
et enregistrant ton modele par defaut, ce devrait etre ok"
and I answered
"Concrètement ?"
because I didn't understand what you meant : if I give every cell a numeric
format, I have
to modify it in the cells that contain a value which is not numeric, for
example a date.
Finally, I think applying a numeric format is not a solution. If you would like
to discuss
this, I imagine the French users list would be a better place. I shouldn't like
to annoy
people in a dev list with questions about formats and how to _use_ them.
I don't say it will solve your problem, but i think it is worth a try
setting all your numeric formats to english format would be a good first
step
An English numeric format is OK for the decimal separator but when you use it,
it
unfortunately generates a new problem with the thousands separator.
The only good solution is probably to create a new locale which would be
identical to the
French locale except for the decimal separator. As I told you before, I thought
locales
where stored in editable files that I was looking for but I was said they're
integrated in
a compiled library. So I have to recompile OOo or to have it recompiled. I now
have to
learn how to do it, unless I find another solution ( 2 days remaining ;-) ).
Thanks anyway for your help.
Regards.
