Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openoffice.org-writer

The localized date format gets lost for date text fields, when saving as Word
97-2000.

to reproduce 
- create a writer document in a localized environment (I'm using de_DE).
- insert some date textfields with a typical locale format
- save as .doc (Word97-2k) and close
- open the .doc file

-> former loclized fields are now in english (or mixed) format

At least the german "." becomes a "/"
(04.04.2005 -> 04/04/2005)
