Suddenly a file I’ve used for a couple of years is giving me a strange result in one of the fields. The file is odt, the data comes from a database file that mirrors what is in a calc file I use daily. I bring the contents of 5 fields across, the other 4 are still correct, one of the date fields is now consistently giving me 02/01/26, which is presumably Jan 2 next year. But the content in the calc file is 31/12/25. I last used the Writer file a month ago, when it worked perfectly. Incidentally, the other date field, which varies, is working perfectly. Has an update changed something? Any help would be appreciated.
I forgot to mention I’m running W10 and Libreoffice 25.8.1.1 X86_64

Could you add an example here?
Do you use the data browser or do you use form fields? If using form fields: Is the field a date field or a formatted field, which shows the date?
