Posted: Wed Jul 27, 2005 3:25 am Post subject: How to run XL Macros in Calc? |
|
|
I have an XL workbook with quite a few macros and worksheets.
When I try to open this workbook in Calc it first correctly tells me there are Macros - when I allow macros to run, nothing happens.
When I try to locate the macros, they dont exist.
How do I get the XL macros to run in Calc?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance. |

Excel macros will not run in Calc as they are written in VBA which is an MS programming language and as such is not supoorted by OOo. If you can access the source code then you could analyse it and re-write it in StarBasic. Unfortunately there is no straight conversion process as the languages used are so different. _________________ Arch Linux

Well, any good OOo macro programmer could and the best path to that would be to learn programming in OOo. _________________ Arch Linux
