[libreoffice-users] Re: Howto find all macros in a document and delete or deactivate them?
Cor wrote And via the user interface (Tools Macro's .. ) Or is that answer too simple ? I was looking there. But I find the way of managing macros absolutely non-intuitive. So I have this document I know nothing about because I received it by email, sent by a customer. I open it and get the warning about one or more macros that are programmed to do I don't know what. To learn more about this macro or these macros, I need to know in which language it/they are scripted. How would I know? So I'm going try one language after the other. First is LibreOffice Basic. I get this ridiculously small dialog whose window can not made larger with kind of a file manger on the left and 3 icons that might be interpreted as folders. A click on one of them opens it and offers me sub-folder with sub-folders. To see anything in the right part of that window - which so far is entirely empty - I need to choose on (sub-)folder or its content on the left and get the name of a macro (I suppose). And then the button to delete it in the far right is not active. And I would have to do this with every scripting language and sub-category. Nope, it is not too simple. But the short answer to my question seems to be that it can not be done. I'm not even going to start to dive into dissecting documents and rebuilding them.

It's a bit of a pain actually. I'd rather call this a bug.
