A cursory reverse engineering of OpenOffice [1] reveals that it uses these libraries for each corresponding component.
(a) Calc = libsc680li.so (b) Draw and Impress = libsd680li.so (c) Writer = libsw680li.so Using group(5) and chmod (1) you can at least restrict execution among these three sub categories. Under the soffice.cfg/modules directory there are directories for each component that can be restricted using group(5) and chmod(1) too. Restricting a component's directory will make the component useless even if they run it because the toolbar will be disabled. A not so trivial task because your requirement is absurd. What is your reason for restricting users that way? Even in a corporate AUP it does not make any sense to restrict or allow individual components in a *SUITE*. E [1] OOo and Staroffice has the same file and library naming.
