While translating the interface, I found these errors. I thought you would want to fix them, as they 
detract from the overall quality of the program.

I am not sure against which module to report each string: I notice clicking on "officecfg" brings me to 
"utilities", so I may be reporting in separate places strings belonging together. However, I have tried 
reporting them altogether, and that isn't OK either. So this is my effort. I hope it is useful.

1. Use of square brackets with non-variables

svtools	source\misc\langtab.src	0	pairedlist	STR_ARR_SVT_LANGUAGE_TABLE	LANGUAGE_NONE			
0	en-US	[None]				2002-02-02 02:02:02

Since you use square brackets to indicate placeholders elsewhere, please don't use them to enclose 
translatable text, since the string is then reported as an error. You could easily use round brackets 
instead, and avoid these time-wasting errors for us.
