Created attachment 121477 [details] Text Document with Snip of a Calc document with the currency formatting shown. FORMATTING. Currency formatting has to be redone when Excel documents are opened in Libre Office. Specifically the "$" appears in the cell to the left of where it should and gets mixed up in the text or numbers in the cell to the left. See the attachment.
Hello Roland, Thank you for filing the bug. Please send us a sample document, as this makes it easier for us to verify the bug. I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO', so please do change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' once you have attached a document. (Please note that the attachment will be public, remove any sensitive information before attaching it.) How can I eliminate confidential data from a sample document? https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/FAQ#How_can_I_eliminate_confidential_data_from_a_sample_document.3F Thank you
Created attachment 124590 [details] Sample Excel Document This is the spreadsheet as imported from Excel. The Currency cells were formatted with the Menu Currency Default icon. Note that the "$" appears in the column to the left of the cell that it should be in. If I click on the column that contains the currency value and reset it to the "Calc" default, the "$" will then appear correctly.

Created attachment 124594 [details] printscreen from 5.1.2, win10 Hello Roland, tested with 5.1.2, win10 and I can not confirm. Please install 5.1.2 version and retest. http://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ Thank you
Updated to Libre Office 5.1.2.2. It did not make any difference. The steps that I go through. Computer 1, Windows 7, MS Office 2003 or Computer 2, MacBook Air, Os X, MS Office or Computer 3, Excel On-line Create an Excel spreadsheet Highlight column and click the toolbar format button for currency. Enter Data. Close the spreadsheet. Open the spreadsheet on my computer, Windows 10, Libre Office 5.1.2.2 (the same issue occurred running Windows 7). The problem is as described in the previous examples. I see the Print Screen from 5.1.2 submitted by raal. My screen look did not change after upgrading to 5.1.2.2 this morning. However if I highlight column D and change the formatting by clicking on the default "$" in the tool bar and get the formatting correct in Libre Office. I can move that same spreadsheet back to Excel, re-save it by giving it a new name (Sample Excel Spreadsheet-2.xls) close it and reopen on my computer the formatting stays correct. I have looked at the default settings on my computer, they are: [$$-409]#,##0.00;[RED]-[$$-409]#,##0.00. So it is the initial opening of a spreadsheet in Libre Office that was created in Excel (only on my computer ??) This problem is not such a big issue as long as there are a few columns that can be changes all at once, but it is a bigger issue when the format has to be changed in a number of non-adjacent cells.
