Re: macro equivalent of VBA Range()
Range( ) is supported in AOO Basic, when the VBA compatibility mode is on. It can be used within a function, but can't be used as a parameter...

Mark Polczynski I assume that you posted this to the forum as suggested, but, I did not see your question there (it is a better place to answer these questions) You get cells from the sheet containing them. I am unsure what Range(Y) does, but a rough guess is that it is a defined range. Doing some googling this seems to explain what range is: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff836512.aspx Just as Andrew mentioned, is the same as GetCellRangeBy[Position, Name]. So, if you just want the currently active sheet in a Calc document, you can do something like this: ThisComponent.CurrentController.getActiveSheet() If you want a specific sheet, you can use ThisComponent.Sheets.getByIndex(insert sheet index here) ThisComponent.Sheets.getByName(insert sheet name here) Now, assume that you want cell A1, you can use ThisComponent.CurrentController.getActiveSheet().getCellByPosition(0, 0) The first 0 means the first column and the second 0 means the first row. You can also use: getCellByPosition(left, top) Get a cell within the range. getCellRangeByPosition(left, top, right, bottom) Get a cell range within the range. getCellRangeByName(name) Get a cell range within the range based on its name. The string directly references cells using the standard formats — such as “B2:D5” or “$B$2” — or defined cell range names. Hope this helps.
