Hey, if someone is interested: I found a very terrible solution, but it works: ... dim oFrame as object dim dispatcher as object dim oCalcDoc as object dim sUrl as string
sUrl = convertToURL("D:\Daten\AUSKUNFT.DBF") oCalcDoc = starDesktop.loadComponentFromURL("private:factory/scalc", "_blank", 0, array()) rem get access to the document-frame oFrame = oCalcDoc.CurrentController.Frame dispatcher = createUnoService("com.sun.star.frame.DispatchHelper") dim args1(2) as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue args1(0).Name = "URL" args1(0).Value = sURL args1(1).Name = "FilterName" args1(1).Value = "dBase" args1(2).Name = "FilterOptions" args1(2).Value = "IBMPC_850" rem execute dispatch dispatcher.executeDispatch(oFrame, ".uno:Open", "", 0, args1()) rem hide the currentWindow oFrame.getContainerWindow().setVisible(false) rem get access to the only sheet otab = oFrame.creator.currentComponent.sheets(0) msgbox oTab.getCellrangeByName("A3").string ... It is nessesary to create first an empty frame (new document) before I can open the dbf file (with the dispatch command). Unfortunatly this din not work in hidden mode.... so it is still visible during loading process. So, I do have a workaround - but it is still terrible. If someone do have a better idea - please let me know...
