Hi all,
I'm trying to create a simple wizard
Wizards are created using dialogs. You can place multiple pages on the
same dialog. I have not used this in a long time, but you set the "step"
to move between pages.
that takes the values from text fields
So you will add text fields to the dialog
and drops them into a template where I have the fields pre-placed.
And you will have fields IN your document/template. I believe that you
have two choices for this.
1. You can add a placeholder and then you can INSERT the value from
"wizard" into the template. You could use a bookmark to mark the
location, or you could insert some specially formatted text that you
"found" and replaced.
2. If you literally insert a named text field into your document, you do
not need to search for the text field because you can access it by name
and directly set the values.
I'm basic stupid so I need a good BASIC (ha ha) tutorial that would help me
develop the macros and tie them into the dialog I'm creating.
I have a free macro document containing examples. I wrote a book on the
topic. There are some other tutorials (check the reference section in my
free macro document, because there are a lot of free resources
available). Look specifically for the macro guide from Sun (I do not
have time to look up a reference now, but if you can not find it, send
me a direct email and I will try to find a link). Also, there is a dev
mailing list that might be useful, and you should check out the oooforum.
Also, is there an easy way to get this put into the wizards listing in the
file menu?
I have never done this, but hopefully someone else can answer this
question for you.
Thanks all...
Wes
