[Solved] Changing the date format

[kovi]

Hi!

In Calc I set a cell value to "2006/10/03 13:33:55.448" and Calc says it is Standard format. I'm doing this with Java and I want to set the format to "DD.MM.YY HH:MM:SS AM/PM":
XNumberFormatTypes xFormatTypes = (XNumberFormatTypes) UnoRuntime.queryInterface(XNumberFormatTypes.class, xNumberFormats);
int myDateFormat = xNumberFormats.addNew("DD.MM.YY HH:MM:SS AM/PM", defaultLocale);
XPropertySet cellRangePropSet = (XPropertySet) UnoRuntime.queryInterface(XPropertySet.class, cellRange);
cellRangePropSet.setPropertyValue("NumberFormat", new Integer(myDateFormat));

but the cell stil looks the same. Do I have to refresh the range so that the cell would display "03.10.06 01:33:55 PM"?

Since the data was imported via CSV file I had to specify that a column is of type 5 in FilterOptions.

So you had no numbers in the cells and number formatting was pointless with text values. This is why I was clueless about what could be wrong with your code.
Thank you for resolving this by your own.
