Description Unknown 2002-06-24 10:56:33 UTC 
I tried to open a XLS file made with Excel 2000. It contains Cyrillic 
characters. The Calc displayed that document with ISO-8859-1 (Latin1) character 
set. Setting the language of the document (Tools|Options|Language 
Settings|Languages|Default languages for documents)to "Bulgarian" or "Russian" 
or "Serbian (Cyrillic)" doesn't help.

I'm new to IssueZilla (or whatever name is called this issue tracking 
system) so this choice seems very reasonable. And by the way no 
action has been taken on this issue since July.

Sorry Dieter, I really should switch on my brain while assigning to
default owner.

OpenOffice.org does not have a font which supports cyrillic 
characters. If there is such a font on the system you have two 
possibilities: 
1. Select all (ctrl-a) and change the font to the cyrillic font
2. Use the font replacement feature (Tools-Options-OpenOffice.org-
Fonts) and replace the used none available font with a font on your 
system.
