Description Sahab Yazdani 2013-03-22 14:09:37 UTC

Steps to Reproduce:

1. We have an Excel 97 spreadsheet where some of the cells have the following custom format code: [$-10409]#,##0;(#,##0);-. (so thousands separators if positive, parenthesis and thousands separators if negative).
2. Open this file in LibreOffice 4.0.1.2

Expected Result:

The formatting should be preserved

Actual Result:

The formatting is lost, just the number remains.

Unfortunately, I can't really attach the document since it contains confidential information, and I couldn't reproduce it by just creating a one cell excel document with that format code. I'll see if obsfucating the data is at all possible, but that may take a little while.
