Description fredrik 2011-03-15 02:21:00 UTC
The Swedish standard for writing and showing dates should be following the ISO 8601 standard, with four digits representing the year, not two digits as it is now.

Hi fredrik, a screenshot or a more specific description of the issue is preferred. I am not quite clear which part of the UI the bug report is focused on. Thanks!

I guess maybe you mean the default Format when choosing to 'Format Cells->Numbers->Date->Format', the default format should be YYYY-MM-DD rather than YY-MM-DD when Sweden is selected as language?

Hi Kohei, is it an Easy Hack? :)
Comment 5 Kohei Yoshida 2011-03-21 19:05:39 UTC
Probably not an easy hack per se since the number format code is a bit convoluted.

I'll give this to Bubli, as she's worked on something in this neighborhood recently.
