From "Getting Started with Macros" (Chapter 13 of the "Getting Started with LibreOffice" user guide): -------------------- Where are macros stored? LibreOffice stores user-specific data in a directory under the user’s home directory. The location is operating system specific. Use Tools → Options → LibreOffice → Paths to view where other configuration data is stored. On Windows XP, this is C:\Documents and Settings \<name>\Application Data. User macros are stored in LibreOffice\3\user \basic. Each library is stored in its own directory off the basic directory. It is not important to understand where macros are stored for casual use. If you know where they are stored, however, you can create a backup, share your macros, or inspect them if there is an error. Use Tools → Macros → Organize Dialogs to open the LibreOffice Macro Organizer dialog. Another common way to open this dialog is to use Tools → Macros → Organize Macros → LibreOffice Basic to open the LibreOffice Macros dialog and then click the Organizer button. ----------------- The chapter talks about importing macros, but not about exporting them. However, when you open the LibreOffice Macro Organizer dialog, go to the Libraries page, and select any library other than Standard, you'll see both the location of that file and an Export button. Click Export and a little dialog pops up, giving you the choice to Export as BASIC library, which you can then move to another machine and import. You can also simply copy the directory from one machine to the other. Hope this helps. --Jean Jean Hollis Weber LibreOffice Documentation Team -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
