I have two macros that it would be useful to assign to the application

While it is possible to do this via "Customize > Events" a lot of end

automate this process for them.
Is it possible to modify:
.openoffice.org2/user/registry/data/org/openoffice/Office/Events.xcu
by the .xcu file in a uno package? If so some pointers would be useful.
And is it possible by a BASIC macro? Again some pointers would be
useful.
If I can get this sorted out I would like to writeup the instructions in
the wiki: http://ext.openoffice.org.nz and possibly update Bernard
Marcelly's excellent Addons1_1en.sxw.
Where can i find this document, i am interested to read it.

The wiki contains probably a lot of useful information, but it also
surprise me "Another name for extension is “macro”. ...", it would have
been nice when people would have talked with us before they wrote such
things.
My apologies Jürgen if I misunderstood your message:

Did you mean that the best term is "components"?
no, "extensions" in the context with OO are much more than only macros.
It is to simple to compare them with macros. Components are more or less
the implementation of UNO objects (services, interfaces) but sometimes
they are not enough to provide the new functionality. For example
add-ons need some configuration files as well. All things together
component + configuration is an extnsion which provides really new
functionality. Bt extensions can be also a collection of macros or a
Basic library, ... Spoken in deployment units we talk about UNO package
bundles which can contain differnet kind of files and content. I will
provide some more info after my vacation and we will try to help
actively on the wiki.

I really like the idea of an wiki (i would like more dynamic
resources on collab.net directly ;-( ) but the content should be correct.
As a wiki you, or anyone else is free to edit and thus correct the
content - currently you don't even have to register. In fact I want
people to edit it - particularly knowledgeable people such as yourself!
I too would have liked for the wiki to have been (to be) on collab.net.
If there is a way, and the wiki is seen as useful then I would be very
happy for it to move. My compromise to having the wiki on collab.net was
to have it as a sub domain of the openoffice.org.nz site (after
discussion with a marketing lead).

My apologies if this is already documented somewhere but I confess that
I haven't been able to find it.
