Re: [tdf-discuss] macro compatibility between LO and AOO?

I know that there were reasons for the fork and I respect that. I was wondering if libreoffice and aooo can't agree to some basic level api for 3rd party developers? Probably not, but I think it's worth asking. Fred On Tue, Mar 5, 2013 at 8:28 AM, Keith Curtis keit...@gmail.com wrote: On Mon,

The 'problem' is that I've been approached by a number of corp, gov't and non-profits who wish to contribute to LO but want their donations to also be covered under the ALv2. They have heard back that code under ALv2 will not be accepted by TDF and LO and that patches must be under LGPLv3+MPL to

This is a story about the usability of LO BASIC and the documentation thereof. And also a plea for help. I'm trying to get LibreOffice to work with SAP Business One (hereafter called B1) in order to eliminate the need to pay for expensive licenses for Microsoft Excel. B1 has a toolbar button
