Office HTML: Excel headers and footers metadata erroneously transl
We export data in Office HTML format, so that end-users may use it directly
with Excel. According to the Office HTML official documentation (ofhtml9.chm), we use &L, &C, etc. metadata within the text values of the headers and footers styles to control the formatting of the headers and footers. Unfortunately, the french version of Excel translates the metadata. The same escape &E means different things in the English and French versions of Excel. The french version of Excel thus doesn't display correctly our headers and footers. In other places though, they didn't translate the text values of styles. For instance, in the page orientation style, "landscape" is not translated. And the documentation has a long chapter about internationalization issues without mentionning that issue. It thus looks like a specific localization error. Is it the same in other translated versions of Excel? Is it officially considered as a problem by MS? Is there a work-around, such as being able to tell that the meta-data is in English? Thanks forward. |
