I have some .dbf files encoded in Greek (DOS/OS2-737). Although it is a valid encoding (see xbase specification) and openoffice supports it in Writer, it doesn't offer the same choice for Calc and Base. Is there a reason for this, someone forgot to include the additional choices or am I missing something?
Thanks
