Hi Andreas,

I will do that.

-----------------

A few observations about the macro I described earlier however.

Turns out that a couple of changes to the command line used is necessary to make this a good citizen.

First - do not use the -invisible option to get rid of the splash screen. It doesn't matter if openoffice.org is already running, including quickstarter, but it makes a big difference if there is no instance of openoffice.org in memory when the macro runs.

Second - Do not double quote the parameters to the procedure. Apparently the command line parameter parsing for OO.o does not honor quotes inside quotes.

Third - Linux and Windows XP do not behave exactly the same with this macro - Linux is more forgiving. Basically what I mean by this is that if the form is closed, but OpenOffice.org not exited under WinXP then you are hosed - and you must explicitly kill the soffice.bin process. Under Linix it is not so, it will still leave the database in memory, but you can start openoffice.org again and use the menu system to exit and it is removed.
