Hi Perry,
please note I answer your question in dev@api.openoffice.org, a place better suiting such questions, than private mails do. This is a matter of scaling, because more people can answer you, and more people can learn from the answer. > Do you have an example for me about how to set the status of a 'check > box' in writer (not on dialog). An example with both writer and dialog > checkbox also is ok with me. > Assuming that you have a logical form named "Standard" (the default name), and your checkbox is named "checkbox" (see the Form Navigator for the concrete names), then oForm = ThisComponent.DrawPage.Forms.getByName( "Standard" ) oCheckBox = oForm.getByName( "checkbox" ) oCheckBox.State = 0 'http://api.openoffice.org/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/awt/UnoControlCheckBoxModel.html#State > Btw, my project is almost finished and have to conclude that OpenOffice > really is great stuff!!!
