On the page http://gambaswiki.org/wiki/doc/intro?nh is this
information:
Gambas is build on top of many free softwares, and could not exist
without them.
So I would like to thank every people involved in the following
projects:
* Linux
* KDE
* GCC and all of the GNU tools, of course.
* The Qt toolkit.
* The GIMP and its toolkit GTK+.
* Libre Office.
* The MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite database management systems.
* And any other libraries used by Gambas.
The reference to LibreOffice is interesting. Does it mean there are
built-in 'hooks' into LibreOffice? I suppose that would be too much to
hope for, but perhaps there is a 'bridge' between LO and Gambas? I need
to update several LO spreadsheets in tandem with creating and
maintaining a new PostgreSQL database storing the same data but in
properly normalised tables.I cannot change the structure of the
existing spreadsheets, so just uncompressing them and running search-
and-replace processes is not quite good enough.
Any pointers to help in this would be welcome, even if only to say I am
wasting my time. "8-)
Kind regards,
Doug
No, it just means that I used LibreOffice to write some presentation
files. :-)
When I want to create a LibreOffice file, I do the following:
- I create a "template" LibreOffice file that has the look of the final
file, and where the data I want to put is replaced by string patterns.
- I unzip the LibreOffice file.
- I modify the content.xml file by replacing the string patterns with
the final data.
- I zip the result, and I get my final LibreOffice file.
Regards,
Clever :) I will print this and pin it to the wall... Might even be a
way to cope with Scribus.

Of course it is actually more complex: the structure of the content.xml
file is sometimes difficult to manage, especially with LibreOffice
sheets. Using the XML components may help.
Regards,
Yeah, ok, I am fully aware of that. But if I would need a single sheet
of paper with some graphical stuff (a form to fill and check some
squares etc.) this might help.
Regards
Rolf
