I had defined a custom Macro and use it often. As I plan on
reinstalling my system soon, I'd like to back up this macro. Where are
the Macros stored?
I'm on Kubuntu 5.10 and using the KDE desktop. Thank you.

I do a few different things.
1. I copy the entire directory containing my user macros. ON my linux
system, I can backup
~andy/.openoffice.org2
or
~andy/.openoffice.org2/user/basic/
The problem is that the macro libraries are stored in a macro library.
There is a file called ~andy/.openoffice.org2/user/basic/script.xlc that
is XML and references all of the macros. In generaly, you want OOo to
populate the values in this file. This is done using (from memory so
this might be wrong)
Tools | Macros | Macros | OpenOffice.org Basic
CLick on the Organize button.
Now, select the library tab. There is a drop down to select the macro
library. In your case, you may want to select the library for your own
personal macros and then append your macros to there. If you wanted to
add your macro libraries to a Write document, which you can then copy
around as you desire, you can append your macros TO the write document
and then you will select each library from
~andy/.openoffice.org2/user/basic/libname/script.xlc.
I hope that this gets you started anyway.
