Hi Peter, Zhu Lihua,
yes , it's a feature. If you change the locale setting, you always
change also the default currency format. The cell format dialog shows
normally the default currency only. But if you change the currency
format listbox to show maybe British pounds, the formats for US$ are
kept for your convenience. This is the same mechanism as if you switch
the locales.

Hi, all,
I found if we swith the locale setting back and forth, some number
format options will be more than the original options.
I'm not sure it's a defect or a feature.
Interesting question.
1. Create a calc document;
2. Check Tool->Options->Language settings->Language, check Locale
setting, close dialog;
3. Open Format Cells dialog, click Numbers tab, click Currency in
Category listbox, check options in Format listbox;
4. Go to Tools->Options->Language settings->Language, change Locale
setting(e.g.: Korean(ROK)), Click OK button;
5. Go to Tools->Options->Language settings->Language again, change
Locale setting back to original setting, Click OK button;
6.Open Format Cells dialog, click Numbers tab, click Currency in
Category listbox, check options in Format listbox. You will find
several Korean Currency options.
I can confirm this behavior. But it might be intended. As the user can
more easily apply the format once selected before. I think it's a useful
feature. However, I am afraid we have to wait until January until an
expert will give us a qualified statement.
All the best for 2008
Peter
