Hello. Forgive me for my awkwardness. I'm getting my feet firmly
planted in Linux right now. I'm using Ubuntu 10.04. I am also using
OpenOffice 3.2.
My question involves the database module. I'm looking for a way to
create a macro (I think that's the way to do it) that will insert the
current date into a field. I know there are keyboard macro programs
like Autokey, but it is not successful in inserting the date. Instead,
it inserts a blank two-character field. I've worked with the Autokey
people, but they can't seem to help.
I wondered if there was some way to do this in OpenOffice.
Thanks.
Yes, you can insert a date directly into a field using a macro....
This may help:
