(1) It can, at least once there was an integration of pyuno into the Scripting Framework. Joerg Budischewsky, the "inventor" of pyuno announced it a year ago on [EMAIL PROTECTED] It should work with any version since OOo2.0 Beta. I never used it so I don't know how good it works. But basically you can use Python as a macro language, it is not integrated into the OOo GUI of course (no IDE). (2) The completeness of the API doesn't depend on the programmming language. I think you wanted to express something different. Could you please elaborate? >> The API is complex, but powerfull.

If you compare OOo to MSO: I doubt that the OOo API is much harder to learn, maybe harder to start diving in. Admittedly that's not relevant for many because they already know the Word or Excel API or at least how they can use it in VBA.
