Description Risto Jääskeläinen 2010-06-30 11:58:39 UTC 
At least I can not find any information about User-defined Struct in program
Help for Basic.

Type ... End Type and With ... End With are not(?) officially undocumented features:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/BASIC_Guide/Other_Instructions

I hope that Help text is updated at some day because it is de facto
documentation for many users.  Some understand only non-english languages and
some don't have connections to internet documentations.  More over I think it
would be good practice always first update Help text and copy information there
to wiki pages if necessary. In that way information would be more coherent.

Regards
Risto

PS. If needed I can split this report to two or more error reports and wishes.
RJ.

Type ... End Type can be found in the example for CreateObject.
We see the BASIC Guide as the main source of information when programming in
BASIC. The installed Help currently is intended to be a quick reference only. Of
course, this can be discussed.
