Excel date changed in OpenOffice
I have been moving all my business files from Win XP to Ubuntu and this included my accounts in MS Excel. I have opened the accounts xlsx file in open office but am baffled by the listed date format that it shows. Instead of the 01/01/11 format I used to log accounted items it now shows a five... -

Hello from a newbie on the block!

Thanks Nick I sort of figured as much. But it is nice to have it confirmed, that way I know that my search for a php answer is fruitless. Maybe time to start learning some rails! Never, managed to get my head around the first tutorials I saw when I first looked though! -

I am setting about rebuilding a windows PC that was running XP Pro. It was rendered useless by a file infecting virus - Ramnit a. I pulled the drive and fitted in in my Linux computer. Using this I have recovered all my 'can't loose' files. I am now looking at rebuilding the PC and have...
