If I would start such a project I would

• run a poll to see how many users have the need to automate OO/LO
• Ask people about their priority. Means: Which modules do they need most (Writer, Calc, ...)

I would split this project into multiple files:

• a general file with those functions needed by all modules like copy/paste, formatting, saving/exporting ...
• a file for each module

Hi argumentum,

mLipok and I are looking into making this UDF compatible with the portable version of LibreOffice also, and I was wondering if you have any insight on what it would take/ how to go about accomplishing this? A bit of research would seem to indicate the need to use Registration Free COM Objects? But I’m not exactly sure on the "how" yet?

Any insight or tips would certainly be appreciated if you have any.

Did you notice that :  _LOWriter_DocSaveAs() and _LOWriter_DocOpen()   can not open/save file to location different than @TempDir ?

[donnyh13]

No, I didn't. I'll look into that. Thank you!

What exactly does it do? return an error? Or just nothing?

I just tested Both on my desktop, and both worked.... Do you have an example I could look at?

Perhaps it's a permission issue?

I love Libre-Oficce and this UDF will certainly be very useful!
