The MakeProperty function is not part of OOo (at least I do not think that
it is included). One definition for it is as follows:
Function MakeProperty( Optional cName As String, Optional uValue ) As
com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
Dim oPropertyValue As New com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
If Not IsMissing( cName ) Then
oPropertyValue.Name = cName
EndIf
If Not IsMissing( uValue ) Then
oPropertyValue.Value = uValue
EndIf
MakePropertyValue() = oPropertyValue
End Function
First, it creates an object (well, a struct) of type PropertyValue. A
property value contains a name and an object of type variant (so it can
contain anything. If the name and/or value is included, then it is
included in the property. This is a fast way of creating a property value
and adding it to an array.
This is a time saving routine because it is easier to declare an array and
then use this to create property values than to create a properly
dimenstioned array of property values and fill them in.
