I have not used the Calc program in this format but I used to use an old suite of programs called DataStar and it was one of the original integrated packages. When brining dates into Datacalc I had to change them all to number days with slash bar "/" seperators before inporting. I don't know that it will work for our Calc but it doesn't take long to use Find/Replace to change something like this and it just may work.

Good luck.

I have a web page showing a table of dates and associated events. The
dates, all in the same year (2011) are in the style, for example "Sun
Oct 23". If I copy/paste the table into Calc, the example date I just
gave comes across as 01/10/2023. How do I fix this so that the dates
come across "correctly"?

Calc's Paste Special option doesn't seem to help.

I have tried saving the table as a CSV file by copy/pasting the web
table into a text editor and then opening that file in Calc but the
result is the same.


Hi,
Choose locale "English(US)" in the language options.
Greetings,
