 Posted: Wed May 11, 2005 3:33 pm Post subject: Macro Recorded Does not work |
 |
|
Hi:
They way I learned Excel macro programing, was mainly recording macros, and then edting them.
I'm trying to do the same with openoffice, and I record a macro, but when I try to execute it does not work.....
Any Idea what can be wrong?
Regards, Miguel
Here is the code generated by openoffice:
| Code: |
sub pdfpaya
rem ----------------------------------------------------------------------
rem define variables
dim document as object
dim dispatcher as object
rem ----------------------------------------------------------------------
rem get access to the document
document = ThisComponent.CurrentController.Frame
dispatcher = createUnoService("com.sun.star.frame.DispatchHelper")
rem ----------------------------------------------------------------------
dim args1(3) as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
args1(0).Name = "URL"
args1(0).Value = "file:///home/mcanedo/Documents/2005/tmp/Estados/Estado_de_Cuenta.pdf"
args1(1).Name = "FilterName"
args1(1).Value = "calc_pdf_Export"
args1(4).Name = "FilterData"
args1(4).Value = Array(Array("UseLosslessCompression",0,false,com.sun.star.beans.PropertyState.DIRECT_VALUE),Array("Quality",0,90,com.sun.star.beans.PropertyState.DIRECT_VALUE),Array("ReduceImageResolution",0,false,com.sun.star.beans.PropertyState.DIRECT_VALUE),Array("MaxImageResolution",0,300,com.sun.star.beans.PropertyState.DIRECT_VALUE),Array("UseTaggedPDF",0,false,com.sun.star.beans.PropertyState.DIRECT_VALUE),Array("ExportNotes",0,true,com.sun.star.beans.PropertyState.DIRECT_VALUE),Array("UseTransitionEffects",0,true,com.sun.star.beans.PropertyState.DIRECT_VALUE),Array("FormsType",0,0,com.sun.star.beans.PropertyState.DIRECT_VALUE),Array("PageRange",0,"15",com.sun.star.beans.PropertyState.DIRECT_VALUE))
args1(5).Name = "SelectionOnly"
args1(5).Value = true
dispatcher.executeDispatch(document, ".uno:ExportToPDF", "", 0, args1())
end sub

Maybe because the file already exists. If you try doing a PDF export like that from a macro, it'll work the first time when no file exists and then won't work afterwards because of the existence of a file.

Unfortunately, the macro recorder will not teach you how to write macros in OpenOffice.org.
The macro recorder is only a handy tool for quick and dirty macros. If it works, fine.
For real programming you will have to spend time and read documents like StarOffice 7 Programmer's Guide and others, see http://api.openoffice.org/TipsAndTricks/external.html and of course search and read threads in this forum.
As for you macro, it does not work because you changed the argument list more or less at random. The declaration of args1 does not fit its use. And args(2) and args(3) are not filled.
