Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 67222
Allow editable basic library references
Last modified: 2014-02-23 19:52:23 UTC
Tools/Macros/Organize Macros/OOo Basic/Organizer.../Libraries/Import... allows one to insert a library as reference, but just read-only. This is an arbitrary restriction AFAICT. When I manually edit the files ...\OpenOffice.org2\user\basic\script.xlc and ...\dialog.xlc to set readonly to false, everything seems to work fine. It is often desirable to keep a library in an external path (in my case I want the library to reside on a network drive that has daily backups rather than my local disk which has no backups) so importing libraries as reference without the read-only property would be a great feature, especially now that there is the library export feature which makes it easy to set up a library in an external path.
TM->requirements: please have a look, thanks !
