[plug] Linux and Star Office and dates

[Rob Hall]

If you set the default language as english (tools, option, general) then all
future formats will be in dd/mm/yyyy.  All the old ones will be in the
format that they were created in.  You can right-click on them, goto format
and change their format manually.

Regards,


Rob Hall
