| <paragraph role="note" id="par_idN10600" xml-lang="en-US" l10n="NEW">The functions whose names end with _ADD return the same results as the corresponding Microsoft Excel functions. Use the functions without _ADD to get results based on international standards. For example, the WEEKNUM function calculates the week number of a given date based on international standard ISO 8601, while WEEKNUM_ADD returns the same week number as Microsoft Excel.<comment>UFI: see #33784#</comment></paragraph> |

| <paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3150437" xml-lang="en-US" l10n="U" oldref="170">$[officename] internally handles a date/time value as a numerical value. If you assign the numbering format "Number" to a date or time value, it is converted to a number. For example, 01/01/2000 12:00 PM, converts to 36526.5. The value preceding the decimal point corresponds to the date; the value following the decimal point corresponds to the time. If you do not want to see this type of numerical date or time representation, change the number format (date or time) accordingly. To do this, select the cell containing the date or time value, call its context menu and select <emph>Format Cells</emph>. The <emph>Numbers</emph> tab page contains the functions for defining the number format.</paragraph> |
