How do you set the default font in OOo Calc for CSV import?
Author: bobtestact :: Posted: Fri Jan 01, 2010 6:04 pm
Whenever I import a CSV file with OOo Calc, it is always displayed in the "Liberation Sans" font. There's another font that I would prefer to use by default for this.

Where can I change this default font? Hopefully, somewhere (either in the UI or a config file) there should be a setting with a value of "Liberation Sans" that I can change to the font of my choice.

(I tried setting a default template, but that didn't work. The default template appears to be applied only to a new blank spreadsheet, and it not used for CSV import.)

I use Ubuntu 9.10.

Access Database Form Controls with macros
Author: ottoshmidt1 :: Posted: Fri Jan 01, 2010 5:18 pm
I can easily access form controls if this form is built in Writer with following command, for example:

Sub butt
Dim Doc As Object
Dim Form As Object
Dim Ctl As Object

Doc = ThisComponent
DrawPage = Doc.DrawPage
Form = DrawPage.Forms.GetByIndex(0)
Ctl = Form.getByName("TextBox")
msgbox Ctl.text

End Sub

How would I get a textbox string from Database Form? It seems that ThisComponent.Drawpage method doesn't work for Base.. Sad


Select box size.
Author: donmac64 :: Posted: Fri Jan 01, 2010 4:51 pm
Select box.

When I select multiple rows and columns Excel used to show the size of the selected area in the ”Name Box” (10R x 4C). In Calc it shows the min and max row and column (b3:h10). I can’t find any where to show this the other way.
This Difference is driving my girlfriend insane and is nagging me to switch back to Excel. HELP!

Is it possible to show the selected box size somewhere, anywhere! The status bar would be fine.


Trapping Constraint Violations in a Form/Macro
Author: gladtobegrey :: Posted: Fri Jan 01, 2010 4:16 pm
I'm new to Base/HSQL.

I have a simple HSQL database table which includes, inter alia, two Date fields - ValidFrom and ValidTo. I also have a Form defined for data maintenance on that table.

I want to ensure that ValidTo is >= ValidFrom when entered (via the Form), so I've defined a Constraint. The constraint works fine, but the default error message displayed when the constraint is violated is pretty unpleasant for the intended (non-technical) end user. I want to trap the violation and issue a more user-friendly error message.

So, can some kind someone explain how I can trap the error raised by the Constraint violation in a Form macro when entering new records? I've tried searching various fora, including this site, with no success. I've also tried coding the (OpenOffice Basic) macro several ways, with no joy - all I get are the default error messages. I suspect I'm using the wrong Form event, or something like that.

Help?
