Really? Are you serious?

As for Open Office and existing VBA procedures....FORGET IT! I am running OO 3.2 and sorry it simply is not credible to even remotely imply that its scripting is compatible with VBA. The syntax is different; the object model is different.

Does OO have good scripting? Yes. Can you "convert" existing VBA procedures? Ummmm, sort of, not really, kind of....no.

As for web-based applications. I hope not. I soon will be completely off the grid, not using the Internet at all. I have been Internet free for two years now at home. Soon I will be retiring, and will have no Internet access at all. I certainly hopw that applications do not move totally to the web. That would mean I will be at a complete loss.


Hmmmm. that may not be so bad after all.
This is a very old topic Gerry and i don't know why Honey has posted in it. Anyway more to the point you not accessing the internet and helping out in these forums will be a great loss...........hope you reconsider getting internet access at home, failing that what address should i forward printed copies of the posts to?
