As a general rule those converting the office to OO.o tend to keep an
old licensed copy of Office around for old Macros. Just make the rule
that new Macros be in OO.o and any older spreadsheets be reviewed for
update to ODF when modifications are required.

Sun StarOffice has a Office Macro tool but it isn't foolproof AFAIK.
They do claim that StarOffice 9 converts Office Macros instantly:

See the answer to question 11. One copy of StarOffice 9 may be of
benefit to you.

Any reference at Sun to the "Macro Conversion Tool" referred to
StarOffice 8 circa 2004-5 AFAICT.
