Language problem in formula

Hi,
I have a formula where i want to calculate how old someone is. I've a Dutch Windows and a Dutch Microsoft Office 2013 package, but when i put an 'J' (JAAR) in the formula it doesn't work. When i put an 'Y' (YEAR) in the formule it does work. The rest of the
formula is in Dutch and works. I believe i checked everything i could to turn the language to Dutch, but it still doesn't work. Any suggestion?
Kind regards,
Jochem van Leur

Are you using the DATUMVERSCHIL (DATEDIF in English) function? This is an undocumented function, and the only date/time function that doesn't accept localized arguments: you
must use "y" in all languages, instead of "j" in Dutch, "a" in French etc.

    I am using tomcat 5.0.19,
    is there any way to solve this problem... Please help......

    Were you ever able to solve your problem?
    I have a similar problem.
    My database is storing the characters correctly and they can be viewed in Java, but when I try to convert them to unicode using:
    String inputUtf8 = new String(input.getBytes(),charset);
    it works for almost all characters, but some come through as noncharacter "boxes."
    The characters that come through as boxes in iso8859-1 are the ones that are in the "supplementary" character range of that set, such as:
    - curved left and right quotes
    - "TM" symbol
    - bullets
    - m dash and n dash
    (see this table: http://www.csgnetwork.com/htmlchrset.html for a more complete list of the supplementary characters )
    Any idea what I need to do to have these characters show up properly?

  • Language problem with Safari!

    I can't view the Arabic language correctly with "Safari". I chose the "Arabic (Windows )" as my "Default Encoding". I'm using "Safari 3.0.3 (522.15.5)". My OS is "Windows Vista Ultimate". "Arabic" is my current language for non-unicode programs. I don't have this language problem with neither "Internet Explorer 7" or "Firefox 2.0.0.7". I really like the "Safari Web Browser" but this problem si really annoying. How can I solve it? Thanks!

    Try to run nightly version of Safari: http://nightly.webkit.org or wait for final version of Safari. Localization issues are major known bugs in Safari.

  • Problem with formula in the query

    HI ,
    In cube I have 2 fileds EU date and US date .
    For example :
    In cube EU date  =07/02/2008
               US date = 23/02/2008
    In the query we have a formula with these 2 fields
    formula is DUE date =  DATE ( ( 'Enter 1 = US; 2 = EU - Asia' == 1 ) * 'Due date US' + ( 'Enter 1 = US; 2 = EU - Asia' == 2 ) * 'Due date EU' )
    In the varaible screeen we have a '"Enter 1 = US; 2 = EU - Asia' == 1"
    So if u enter 1 it takes EU date and display as due date if u enter 2 it take US date and display as due date.
    Problem is :
    When we give  "'Enter 1 = US; 2 = EU - Asia' == 1"---this value 2
    in the report in some cases we get due date as 02/07/2008 instead of 07/02/2008. This is not for all records only few we get like this . and for US  due date this problem  is not there.
    Please suggest what might be the problem.

    Hi,
    Please check again the cell value because it may contain correct value but display may be different.
    You can apply the common display property fot the whole column using the workbook properties and saving the workbook.

  • Language Problem while exporting and importing data

    hi,

    I created new user on my new server from enterprise manager.
    Exported user from the old server and imported in the new server.
    i.e: from Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.7.0.0, I did
    c:\>exp system/manager file=abc.dmp owner=abc
    Then on the new server Release 9.2.0.1.0, I did
    c:\>imp system/manager file=abc.dmp fromuser=abc touser=abc
    I'm using Arabic Language on my both servers. NLS_LANG parameter on both the servers is AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252.
    On both the servers I'm able to insert and select data in arabic.
    However, after I export the data from old server to the new server, the arabic data comes in question marks.
    If I create new table and insert arabic data on new server's user abc it is displaying well. Only the data which I exported and imported is not showing arabic.
    On both old and new servers operating system is Windows XP.
    I'm stuck with this problem. Anybody having any idea about how to solve this problem please help.
    Thank you all in advance.
    Regards

    Let me be clear here. Storing Arabic data in a WE8MSWIN1252 database is not supported by Oracle and will lead to problems. You are incorrectly using the NLS_LANG to prevent proper conversion and your data appears to be okay when you use utilties like SQL*PLUS to view your data. When you write applications that don't rely on the NLS_LANG like JDBC thin driver for instance you will realize your data is in fact invalid. To learn more about the NLS_LANG you can take a look at this FAQ: http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/globalization/htdocs/nls_lang%20faq.htm
    To migrate your database to a proper character set you can refer to this paper:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/globalization/pdf/mwp.pdf
    But please do not ask for help in supporting your current configuration in this forum.

  • Mavericks OSX Update 10.9.1 is out - fixes language problem

    See:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6065
    The new update to Mavericks fixes the problem with updates not showing, if the primary system language is not set to English:
    Fixes an issue that prevented iLife and iWork apps from updating on non-English systems
    It does not mention Aperture - but hopefully this problem has been fixed for Aperture as well with this update.

    Actually, this is an id10T mistake.  I rebooted to the wrong hard drive.  Please disregard this problem.  It is solved.
