Per your response, I received the same result(s) when
using a text document.
Obviously, I'm just trying to gain a higher understanding
of macro usage, preferably in a spreadsheet venue.
So, this is just an exploratory trip, and any result is only
informational at this point. However, even with a long
history in programming, I'm making little progress.
But, something I should have tried initially, a google
search for +"line 8, in helloworldpython"(from the
error result at:)

produces:

Now, if I could just read French. <g>
I have to assume that HelloWorld is a text macro, and
ineligible for calc.
Thanks, for your comments.

With moderate OO experience, and many years of
programming experience, I thought I'd spend a little
time reading about macros.
No real immediate need, just curious on the facility.
However, my first basic experience seems to result
in error(s), as follows:
1). Open an empty calc document.
2). >tools>macro>run macro.
3). Expand the OOo macros.
4). Select the "favorite standby" - HelloWorld.
5). Choose Run, to run the macro.
This is my result:

And this is the OO version banner:

So, what am I doing wrong in this elementary exercise?
Thanks
I got the same error in a calc document. It inserted the text "Hello
World (in Python)" in a writer document.
??
I dunno!
