Maurizio, Andrew,

thanks for the pointers you posted. This will help me finding out.
I guess the "simplest" way would be to call a Python script from Basic.

Thanks again to both of you. You've put me on the way.

All,

I'm looking for a way to create a timer in LibO Basic as a reminder
to accomplish some task.


The timer would be started when the document is opened, then would
send a message to the user if he has not accomplished a particular
task (eg validating a particular dialog) when a delay expires (eg 2
hrs).

In fact I'm in need of several timers for the same document to handle
as many different delays/tasks.


Can anyone point me to some direction as I'm currently in the dark?


Thanks in advance.

My gut reaction is that this is not directly supported in Basic.

That said, read these posts:

https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=44=59369

https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9=33935

Sadly, this post references something implemented in BeanShell that 
would have helped, but it references a now defunct forum with the 
solution (so when they say that MS777 developed a solution and provides 
a link, that link is no longer valid).

[libreoffice-users] [macros] How to create a timer ?

accomplish some task.

a message to the user if he has not accomplished a particular task (eg 
validating a particular dialog) when a delay expires (eg 2 hrs).
