Hi :) Did you get any good answers to this one or solve it on your own? If not then now might be a good time to ask the list or find the new askBOT thing on the official LibreOffice website and ask afresh there

I'm finding it very hard to get help on Macro's Basic instructions... For example, I want to find out how to copy spreadsheets with macros. I turn on the record, copy some sheet and then see the instructions used: ---------------- Dim ... Dim ... x(0)=... [etc] dispatcher.executeDispatch(document, ".uno:Move", "", 0, args1()) End Sub --------------- Very Good! Now I know the instruction is a dispatcher with URL/Command .uno:Move If I place the cursor over ".uno:move" and press F1, help comes out with "subject not found". Ok, building the documentation for all the instructions is hard work no one has the time to accomplish it. Let's see the internet... There's api.libreoffice.com , which at first glance seems sooo helpful. Articles have a lot of links to more articles, etc. If I start browsing, one thing leads to another and then I'm lost. I see no search box so I return to the main page. There's a google box, so I write .uno:move . There are plenty of results, no one describing how to move/copy a sheet. Google didn't realize I wanted the whole phrase, so I put double quotes ".uno:move"... and nothing... Am I missing something?? I gave google.com a try with the phrase, but the only interesting result is a forum discussion. Is helpful, but my point is: Where the heck is the precise description of the instruction .uno:move ?? What are it's arguments?? Andrew Pytoniak wrote very good books and collections of forum questions regarding to macros, but when you have a certain doubt, where do you seek for help?? I really love Libreoffice, just suffered the luck of a clear way to get help on macros.
