Description peter.junge 2006-01-10 11:32:44 UTC 
Replacement for StarOffice internal issue #112709# because FT left OOo.

(reported by KR)
new calc
type a date e.g. 10/17/2003
format the cell to e.g. 'Friday, October 17, 2003'
open Find & Replace dialog
search for Friday or October
-> no success whatever options you choose
expand more...
-> still no success whatever options you choose
Excel would find the string if 'Search in (x)Values' is checked

ATTENTION:
Possible traps for implementatation. In comparison to excel we do not
distinguish between a SEARCH and a REPLACE dialog. With our dialog a user could
search for OCTOBER and replace it with FOOTEMBER. What should happen then?
Should the date value be converted to a string (Friday, Footember 17, 2003)?
Should an error message appear? Or do we offer a smart listbox that offers
possible replacements?
This has to be specified.
