I do not know about the questions that follow but this macro does exist for 1.1.x. One problem, it is French but does the job. Translating is on my TODO list. See http://fr.openoffice.org/Documentation/Outils/OOoMultiSave-0.4.zip it is an addon. You can install it by placing the zipfile in either share/uno_packages or user/uno_packages and running OOo's pkgchk program which you can find in <install_dir>/program/ If you can help with the translation, please let me know. > an MSO folder would be set up and all MSO version docs > should be saved there. > > one would then always be able work in OOo native > formats. when forced to converse with the dark side > (in keeping w/ the movie times -lol-), one only needs > to go to that MSO folder to dance with the devil. > otherwise, one has full access to OOo files. > > this would, imho, GREATLY facilitate migration while > enabling future OOo file formats to eventually become > the standard. > > doesn't anyone else see the silliness in using OOo to > create *only* .doc, .xls, etc. files? many folks use > it this way. heck, i have to sometimes, too - and i > *hate* it. but i do it anyway - it is necessary. i'd > love to have an OOo file format version, but saving > twice is a bit redundant over time and not worth it. > > so, let's make it easy! > > i'd write the macro myself, but i don't have the macro > skills and i'm knee deep writing a PHP, ADOdb, Lemos > forms class, CSS, HTML, pgSQL database app that is > stretching my mind a little bit too far as it is... > > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Tired of spam?
