As already stated, OOo uses the Hebrew locale with UK style dates when
started with a he_IL environment.
Stop insisting on modified defaults. It is not possible.
All of my own spreadsheets use no dates other than ISO dates. I never
see any US style since I use either one of explicitly set British locale
or default locale with German OS. SO I see either UK dates or German
dates. I can override them with my prepared cell styles at any time,
with very small effort.
My OOo shows US dates by default, even though that is not my locale setting.
This is a misbehaviour I can not reproduce. There must be some reason
for this.
Can anybody else reproduce this? All locale settings set "Default" with
a non-US OS locale showing US dates (12/31/09) in OOo documents?
Try a Hebrew number format locale for cell style "Default" and store the
modified document as default template.
File>Templates>Save...
File>Template>Organize... select saved template, command:"Set Default"
This is meant to be a workaround for your personal bug.
