D'oh!
Okay, I win the spaced-out for the day award. I had the Properties
Window not at full size so until I scrolled up I didn't see the Events
tab at the top -- missed it completely.
I see it. If I had seen it earlier, that would have made life much
easier.
For a macro language, OOo Basic has an amazing amount of stuff. It's so
darned hard to pick up on a lot of this. It reminds me of when I had
no clue what OOP was and had to teach myself Java. I learned Perl in,
literally, 2-3 hours, but it took me 3 weeks to understand OOP and
learn Java.

Okay. It's in the editor, that's enough for me. It's quick, it's easy,
and I don't have to play the dual-editor game where I make changes in
one editor then have to update the version in the text editor as well.
Thanks!
