If all else fails this should work: - export as CSV [or TSV] - write a program to find the URLs and rebuild the CSV with the new cell - open in calc and save as .calc — jt - j...@jt-mj.net Do unto those downstream as you would have those upstream do unto you. - Wendell Berry - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
Re: Can User Functions Be Created In OpenOffice Spreadsheet
you can write user defined functions it's very easy. The easiest way is to pass the value of a cell and then just return a string or whatever you want. I don't remember what happens when you pass the cell value like that if you are parsing out text and pulling out a URL property it's probably easier if you have the address so you can actually pull the cell and then look at properties but I'm hanging out in the car far from any of my documentation so that would be tricky to find. The easiest way to do that is to make sure that the user-defined macro that you created is embedded in the document in question and then put it in the standard library so that it's automatically loaded. They're better ways to get around that but that's absolutely the easiest way to do it. If you really can't figure it out let me know.

Can User Functions Be Created In OpenOffice Spreadsheet
Hello, I have an OpenOffice Calc (spreadsheet) that has over a thousand Hyperlinks and I would like to create a user defined function which would extract the URL from the Hyperlink and put it in a separate cell. I found an Excel example on the web which I pasted in below. Function GetURL(rng As Range) As String On Error Resume Next GetURL = rng.Hyperlinks(1).Address End Function Can this be done in OpenOffice Calc? I have looked for documentation but I probably using the incorrect terms so I have not found any information. I use both the Windows and Mac versions of Open office. Thank you. I enjoy reading the support you provide to users and I have learned several things. dds
