In the Basic IDE, in some cases, there is no way to stop a macro in an infinite
loop except by killing the whole soffice. For example, have a look at the
following code :
while fileProcessed <> ""
msgBox fileProcessed
wend
This is an infinite loop where a message box is displayed in each iteration.
When executing this code, each loop will display a message Box which is modal.
That means that you can't click on the stop button in the IDE. The only choice
you have is to click on the "Ok" button from the msgBox, which will display a
new msgBox...
Currently, the only choice we have is to kill OpenOffice.org (or close the
document containing the macro if you can). This may be quite annoying, because
you have to re-open everything.
This is somehow related to an issue Laurent (Lgodard) posted some years ago :
