            Bug ID: 146117
           Summary: Basic's Val and Str functions need clarification that
                    they perform locale-independent conversion
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Documentation
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Documentation for Val [1] and Str [2] need to mention that these two perform
*locale-independent* conversions, i.e. only comma as thousand separator, and
dot as decimal separator, are accepted in string; converting number to string
uses dot, and does not add thousand separators. This is unlike the CDbl/CStr,
which are locale-dependent.

See also Basic Guide [3], where it is stated explicitly (for Val).
