<pre>Description:
When using LO in French, floats are expressed with a comma '3,14'.
When exporting to csv format, if you chose the comma separator at export, the
file generated can't be parsed (impossible to decide a comma is either a field
separator, or within a float).
The turn-around is to first set the column to 'english(US)' (format cells >
Number > Language), but it's an ugly hack (export only should be affected, and
it's hard to find).
Floats should be automatically coded with a dot in csv exports, at least when
using comma as a separator.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Set a sheet to French
2.Insert two floats into the first cells
3.Export to csv using comma a a separator
4.Open the generated csv
Actual Results:
Too many fields detected
Expected Results:
(N-1) commas on each line (N is the number of fields)
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
Code floats with dots.</pre>
