Re: OpenOffice API Programming
You can create Macros in Basic and tie them to toolbar icons or keyboard short cuts. You can also create an extension with a menu item.

Re: Set property of selected cell range in a textable in Writer
First, you need to understand what is returned when you get the current selection and then you need to check for it. For example: Nothing selected or multiple text ranges: com.sun.star.text.TextRanges ne or more cells selected in one block: com.sun.star.text.TextTableCursor So, you must inspect what is returned and then make changes based on that For example: Sub WhatIsSelected Dim oSel Dim oneSel Dim i As Long oSel = ThisComponent.CurrentCOntroller.getSelection() 'Inspect oSel If oSel.supportsService(com.sun.star.text.TextRanges) Then For i = 0 To oSel.getCount() - 1 oneSel = oSel.getByIndex(i) If oneSel.supportsService(com.sun.star.text.TextRange) Then If NOT IsNull(oneSel.Cell) Then ' You have a cell here ' If actually select stuff, it will probably look like ' there is one more selection than you really have. ' One for each selected range and one for the current cursor ' location (I think). ENd If Else Print what is this thing 'Inspect oneSel End If Next ElseIf oSel.supportsService(com.sun.star.text.TextTableCursor) Then 'Inspect oSel 'Can you set what you want on the entire range at once? ' I think that you can, I do not think that you must enumerate the cells. End If End Sub Hope this helps On 07/08/2015 06:44 PM, Hung Mark wrote: Hi, I didn't express very clearly.

Re: EXTERNAL: Re: loadComponentFromURL - Solaris 11 OO 3.3
No worries regarding the confusion, language is generally imprecise :-) Disclaimer: I have never used Java to manipulate OO. That said, your explanation sounds plausible, and my mostly uninformed opinion is that you are correct. Hopefully another more familiar person can provide a workable solution.

If I use OpenOffice as a regular user, the applications work just find (i.e. writer, database, etc.), but if I attempt to run any code that I've written in Java that uses the loadComponentFromURL method, the application crashes with the below stack trace. Also, compiling and running of FirstLoadComponent.java located in sdk/examples/DevelopersGuide/FirstSteps results in the same.If I install OpenOffice 3.3 on a Solaris 10, not Solaris 11 as in this case, the applications run fine. I presume there is a conflict with the libraries. Specifically, the libxml.so.2 libraries, which already exist in my /usr/lib (installed by other Solaris applications). It appears that OpenOffice requires the libxml.so.2 located within the /opt/openoffice.org directories instead of the one installed by the Solaris apps. If I change my LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include the one openoffice requires, I then get other library references out of sync.

Re: trouble with program that i cant figure out
Couple of comments: First, the API list is probably not the best list for such a question. I recommend that you use the user's mailing list (see http://openoffice.apache.org/mailing-lists.html) You can subscribe by sending an email to : users-subscr...@openoffice.apache.org You can then send questions here: us...@openoffice.apache.org When you subscribe to a mailing list, you receive email for all questions and answers, not just yours, so, you may receive a lot of email (20 to 100 per day). If you do not subscribe, you will not see the response unless the person responding knows that you are not subscribed and chooses to copy their answer to you personally. On the API list, since you are not subscribed, your email to the list will not go to the list until a moderator approves your email, so it can be delayed for a long time until a moderator does this. If you join the forum, you can do this without receiving a bunch of email https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/ Now, I have some concerns with your question. One of my concerns is that you state that you purchased OpenOffice. You can download OpenOffice for free http://www.openoffice.org/ Verify your version of OpenOffice. The latest version is 4.0.1 I believe. If your version says LibreOffice rather than OpenOffice, that would be useful to know. On 01/04/2014 10:08 AM, B.D.

I have gone to help but can't get answer.( help) also i deleted a file by mistake, can i get it back, how. I tried to look up this in help but could not find answer. Thank You What, exactly, do you mean? Do you mean that you received an email message that contains a document and you attempt to open the attached document? I will assume you do mean this. If not, well, I just wasted your time and mine! :-( A few questions for you, that may allow you to answer your own question. 1. How do you read your email? Are you using web mail? I see that you have a hotmail account, so, I assume that you are reading your email using a web browser. 2. How do you try to open the document? Do you save the document and then use File Open from OpenOffice, or, do you simply double click on the document while running your email program? If you are NOT saving the file to disk, especially if you are using your web browser, try saving the file to your local computer and then use File Open to open the file. 3. What is the document's file extension? I think that the file must have the correct file extension for OpenOffice to open it. As an example, it might end with .doc, .docx, or .odt. If you have a file encoded as DOCX, then it must have the .docx file extension (someone jump in if I am mistaken). I hope that this helps a little. -- Andrew Pitonyak My Macro Document: http://www.pitonyak.org/AndrewMacro.odt Info: http://www.pitonyak.org/oo.php - To unsubscribe, e-mail: api-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: api-h...@openoffice.apache.org
