Please do *not* start a new question by replying to an old one as this
causes several problems:
1. most email software will correctly think that your email is a
response to the email you are "replying" to, and will indicate
this by displaying your email as a child of the original email
2. because of this, people not interested in the original email may
ignore your question
3. people may think that the original email has a reply(yours) so
that they do not have to give it a reply
So in conclusion, more people will read your email if it looks like the
start of a new thread rather than the reply to an old one.

That is correct. OOo does not use VB but has its own BASIC. This means
you will have to do some translation from the VB dialect to OOoBASIC.
Fortunately there are some references available on the doc project
website (http://documentation.openoffice.org/ ) to help you make this
trasition. One in particular should be useful in guiding you, see
http://documentation.openoffice.org/HOW_TO/various_topics/VbaStarBasicXref.pdf
and it companion set of examples.
Hope this get you started.
