My thought is that the person to whom I send it should easily install it by the extension manager, so I guess I need to create an OXT somehow. How is all that done properly?if you just want to share macros with people, I'd recommend Paolo's BasicAddonBuilder http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/BasicAddonBuilder Anyway, if you want to study how extensions are packages, read the Dev's Guide http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/Extensions/Extensions and http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Non-code_extensions Regards -- Ariel Constenla-Haile La Plata, ArgentinaThank you, Ariel and also thank you, Jan. Currently I only write Basic macros (and create dialogs) and most of them are for Calc.
Try the BasicAddonBuilder, this will build the OXT for you. http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/BasicAddonBuilder
"BasicAddonBuilder is an OpenOffice.org extension that allows you to export a StarBasic library in the OpenOffice.org Extension format, ready for deployment. BasicAddonBuilder does not require special skills or a deep knowledge of extensions specifications. A wizard-style dialog will guide you through the process, allowing you to define in a graphical way all menu and toolbars that will be added to the OpenOffice.org user interface in order to launch macros from your StarBasic library."
