Description Don Lewis 2018-01-18 23:51:14 UTC 
Databasetables viewed in 'Data Sources' (F4) show up correct, eg. a numerical value of 5.90 is localized as 5,90.
If you include the table in a spreadsheet (Data->Pivot Table->Create), all decimal-commas are displayed as decimal-points and some values are changed to a date-format. '5,90' appears as '01.05.90'. Processing these values yield strange results.

The same phenomenon exists if you replace the table by a local query or a database view.

Database is postgresql94-server remotely accessed by current JDBC-driver.

This problem was originally reported for the FreeBSD port of 4.1.3, but I am able to reproduce this on 4.2.0-dev on Windows.
