Hi Drew :)
Thanks for that. Some of it even makes sense to me. It looks completely
different from the excel one. A fresh re-write rather than a translation. I'm
hoping that a few more of these real-world examples will help me make sense of
the various guides on macros someday.
Thanks and regards from
Tom :)

Ok - well, here is a quick replacement, should do the trick for you
Sub Rename_Tabs()
Dim x As Long, suffix As String
Dim v as Variant
Dim CurrentFile as object
Dim WorkSheets as Variant
' LibreOffice ships with a collection of useful macros in a libary
' TOOLS which must be loaded explicity
BasicLibraries.loadLibrary("Tools")
suffix = " 12"
v = Split("Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr,May,Jun,Jul,Aug,Sep,Oct,Nov,Dec", ",")
CurrentFile = thisComponent
' thisComponent is a pseudo variable that always returns the current
' document on your desktop
' from here on out it should be fairy clear
'
WorkSheets = CurrentFile.getSheets
For x = 0 To Worksheets.Count -1
' the IndexinArry function in 'tools' is similar to MATCH in VBA
If IndexinArray(Left(WorkSheets(x).Name, 3), v) <> -1 Then
WorkSheets(x).Name = Left(WorkSheets(x).Name, 3) & suffix
End If
Next
End Sub
Best of luck,
