OO.o 1.1 has a macro recorder. Probably the easiest way to recreate the macros is to figure out how to do the steps in OO.o and then record the macro using the tool.

I "get" to handle purchasing in my lab. This system (on a Mac) uses an excel database filled with scientific products/chemicals, etc, and an order form. There are macros setup so that one can select a row in the database for product X and enter it into the order form. I copied this database/form to my laptop running Mandrake with OpenOffice and imported it. All is well except, of course, all the M$ macros didn't transfer and, thus, if I desire to be able to handle these orders from my laptop I need to duplicate the macros in OpenOffice 1.5. I have NEVER done macros, in M$ Word, excel, etc, nor in OO. I don't even know where to begin. The tentative steps I've taken to try to figure it out have been hopeless thus far. Any really good HOWTOs on this? praedor - -- "Our ship is in the hands of pilots who are steering directly under full sail for a rock.
