Dear Mr. Daugherty,
Thanks the matter nicely solved with macro. However please provide more
information about MACRO, if possible and its varient usages.
I'm not sure there's a lot more that I can tell you about the macro
features -- It's too new to to me also -- but there are many very
knowledgeable people on this mailing list.
What I can tell you is:
1. The Macro recorder feature works well for operations that do NOT
require recording what is done in any dialog boxes.
2. Macros can be written by the user. This requires knowing or
learning Star Basic, which is similar to but not identical to Visual
Basic. The help system provides some useful information but needs
updating -- the discussion of GoSub is one example. I could not make it
work as described; Pitonyak, in "OpenOffice.org Macros Explained",
recommends against its use. I would certainly concur.
