I am using Libre Office Writer 4.4.2.2 under Ubuntu 15.04 to read some (externally created) Europass CVs (with extension .doc), but LibreOffice makes an unreadable mess of them, overlaying lines over one another, etc. Can anybody suggest a remedy? The obsolete Word on my MacOS 10.4 system

[libreoffice-users] [Calc] Automate creation of series of full date (ie. Day name, Date)?

Hello I often use Calc to prepare multi-day trips, and have to write series that look like this: Mon 1 Aug Tue 2 Aug Wed 3 Aug etc. Does Calc come with a way to automate this tedious task, or is there some macro that I could copy/paste from somewhere? Thank you. -- View this message in

Found it: What you type in the cell must match exactly the format chosen in the Format Cells dialog, in the Format section. For instance, if you choose Fri. 31 Dec. 99, that is exactly what you must type for LO to figure things out. Thanks a lot! -- View this message in context:

I'm interested in that observation - might be worth reporting a bug or enhancement request. You shouldn't have to type exactly the same format (if you apply the format after you type it in the cells). Can you shoot me an email privately with a simple attachment with a sample of what did not work

I simply typed Mon 1 Aug and expected LO to figure it out. But I guess the doco should say that user must first start with a simple DD/MM/, before telling LO that it's a date, and clicking to get a series. Computers are not *that* smart ;-) -- View this message in context:
