openoffice displays dot '.' instead of comma ','

[Juergen Lueters <jlueters@intranet-engineering.de>]

All gnome apllication issue ',' if i use the del key on keyboard number
block (KP_Decimal). Openoffice displays '.' instead. 

I use the german Gnome and Openoffice Version.

Any idea about this. 
Does openoffice.org use different keyboard mappings? All other keys seem
to be ok.

Regards
Juergen
