While I appreciate this introduction to Macro programming with Basic, as a Linux user I tend to prefer scripting languages with superior syntax and greater versatility. I am a lot more interested in learning how to make Python macros. Basic is really an anachronistic language, and support for Basic is really only included to appease the people coming from Windows and Microsoft Office.
I use vim rather than OpenOffice for many tasks because support for Python and Ruby are absolutely essential to me. I would love to learn how to use those languages to script and extend OOo.
