You must go Tools → Options → LibreOffice → General and check Enable macro recording. Restarting LO is not needed. This option has been disabled by default because macro recorder has never worked reliably. If you really need macros, like in your life depends on them, you'd better learn how to write them yourself. Hopefully someone else will have answer to your second question. -- Best regards Mirosław Zalewski -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

However, I have come up against two hurdles: snip because another person answered question #1 2) When clicking on Tools/Macro/Run Macro a message appears saying that Java Runtime Environment needs to be installed but clicking on Tools/Options/Java reveals that this is already installed. snip Any help would be greatly appreciated What operating system are you using? Is it 32 bit or 64 bit? What version of Java are you using? (1.7 or 1.6.)? Is it 32 bit or 64 bit? If you are using a Windows 64 bit operating system and your Java is also 64 bit, you have a problem. LibreOffice is 32 bit and requires Java that is 32 bit. Also, Java 1.6 is reported to work better with LibreOffice than 1.7. What we both need is for someone who uses Windows 64 bit to tell us how you can obtain 32 bit Java.
