BTW, even if when you are in a non-english Windows environment, you can still import a CSV file generated by OpenERP by using Excel's text import wizard, which does allow you to specify the necessary options, just like OpenOffice does when you open a CSV: - separator: , (normal comma) - encoding: UTF-8 (Unicode)
Here is a Microsoft Office article with more details: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/import-or-export-text-txt- or-csv-files-HP010099725.aspx -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenERP sa GTK client R&D, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/787840 Title: No Excel export when lang not en_US Status in OpenERP GTK Client: Confirmed Bug description: To reproduce, on Windows: 1) Install GTK client V6.0.x or V6.1 2) Add a system environment variable in Windows: LANG=nl_NL 3) Start GTK client, connect to a server. Observe: menu is in Dutch now. 4) Try to export any data to Excel. Observe: you get a csv export instead. Notice the dropdown that allows you to select the export to Excel: it should say "Openen in Excel". Cause: The file bin/modules/gui/window/win_export.py contains the following code: if self.wid_action.get_active_text() == "Open in Excel": open_excel(fields2, result) else:.... However, when LANG=nl_NL, self.wid_action.get_active_text() equals "Openen in Excel". The code above contains a language-specific string that breaks when the translation is not "Open in Excel". On a Windows systems configured with Dutch as the default language, the export breaks without setting an environment variable. Workaround: add a system environment variable LANG=en_US. The client menu will be in English now.
