In the case of Biblioscape the answer is yes. The Biblioscape Bibliographic application interacts with MS Word in a similar manner as Endnote. Biblioscape interacts with MS Word using a Visual Basic program that utilises the DDE interface. Biblioscape has published this script at http://www.biblioscape.com/integr_word.htm . To enable OpenOffice to interact in the same way requires the conversion of this script to OpenOffice basic. The author of the script has offered to mentor any developer who would like to attempt this project, but note that his skills are more in MS Visual Basic than in OpenOffice Basic. Contact Andrew Brown <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. I have had this information on our Developer Page http://bibliographic.openoffice.org/developer.html#Write for some time. But no has offered to write the script. > > I am also looking forward to the updated bibliographic program in OO. > BTW, will it be ready for the v2.0 OO release?? > > Thanks in advance for any and all responses. > > SC > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- ------------------- David N.
