Hello Johnny,

Anyone who can point me to somewhere where I can learn to create an

to create an OXT somehow. How is all that done properly?

if you just want to share macros with people, I'd recommend Paolo's
BasicAddonBuilder
http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/BasicAddonBuilder

Anyway, if you want to study how extensions are packages, read the Dev's Guide
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/Extensions/Extensions
and
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Non-code_extensions

Thank you, Ariel and also thank you, Jan. Currently I only write Basic
macros (and create dialogs) and most of them are for Calc.

Try the BasicAddonBuilder, this will build the OXT for you. http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/BasicAddonBuilder

"BasicAddonBuilder is an OpenOffice.org extension that allows you to export a 
StarBasic library in the OpenOffice.org Extension format, ready for deployment. 
BasicAddonBuilder does not require special skills or a deep knowledge of extensions 
specifications. A wizard-style dialog will guide you through the process, allowing you to 
define in a graphical way all menu and toolbars that will be added to the OpenOffice.org 
user interface in order to launch macros from your StarBasic library."
