The OOo examples do not work.
I have done OOo scripting in Python. What exactly does not work?

Haven't found any specific to scalc.
The zhw contents is closest to working I have found to date.
The z script was used to get to stated place and minimize typos.
As results shows - I ran as root. As user it screams lots. (Permissions)
The above is best effort so far. Others before it were even worse.
If you have working code I would like to tryout your linkage (process).
Before you send anything, can you use python to have scalc open a .xls
and save it as a csv? I can get python to have scalc open a specific
file and then point'n'click myself, but that isn't productive. I cannot
get scalc to do a saveas instruction issued by a python program. I have
no intentions of staying up all night pointing and clicking. Humans
think, computers do the repetitive. Yes? Besides, it is far easier to
train the computer than to train the ..... :)
Any help is appreciated.
