Excel function NOW() is not working

Hello.

Ihave founded, that Excel’s function NOW() is not working (it returns time of last workbook saving). When i tried to calculate workbook without “ignoreError” flag, it thrown exception.

Can you please fix it

public void cdateTest() throws Exception {
Workbook wb = new Workbook(“D://in.xlsx”);

wb.calculateFormula(true);

Cells cells = wb.getWorksheets().get(0).getCells();

Cell cell = cells.get(“C4”);

System.out.println(cell.getDisplayStringValue());
}

public void cdateTest1() throws Exception {
Workbook wb = new Workbook(“D://in.xlsx”);

wb.calculateFormula();

Cells cells = wb.getWorksheets().get(0).getCells();

Cell cell = cells.get(“C4”);

System.out.println(cell.getDisplayStringValue());
}

Best regards. Alexey

Hi Alexey,

Thanks for your posting and using Aspose.Cells.

Please download and use the latest version: Aspose.Cells
for Java v8.2.2.2
, the code works perfectly with it.

I was not able to observe any issue. If your issue still persists, then please let us know your Locale settings, may be it is causing this issue.

With English locale, everything is ok

-Duser.language=en -Duser.country=US

Thanks for quick reply!


You are right. There is some issue with user.country, user.language. For me (ru-RU) it is not working, but with locale en-US it works. Is it possible to make this function non-locale-depended?

Best regards, Alexey
