Do you ask for someone writing the macro only or also the external program (script?)? It's easy to write a simple script that opens a certain document (in Linux; I don't know about Windows) and in OpenOffice.org you can easily make a macro start when opening a certain document. I have written a few (simple) macros that reads from the clipboard, but I am definitely not some kind of guru or something… Regards Johnny Rosenberg > > -Eric Wood > CTO > International Plastics, Inc. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
