Hi Jean-Francois,

Hi, I posted a project offer on many freelancers sites but had very expansive offers (from 150$to 
1000$ !)

You must be joking. You find $150 already expensive? A skilled
freelancer takes at least (!) $80 per hour, so you are not even willing
to pay for 2 hours of his/her precious time. Good luck.

Ask yourself how much you earn per hour, how much time you would invest
in solving the task, then divide time by 3 and multiply salary by 2, so
you'll end up with 2/3 of the project cost as compared to if you did it
yourself. Which is still a bargain..

Again, good luck.

which seemed quite not realistic to me so I just left everything
pending. I would like to have an advice on the time needed to code
such a macro, that writes entries from a Writer form control to a Calc
cell. Thank you for your help.

You are attempting to get a cost estimate from us for free. Nice try.

Just be assured that it will be more than one hour plus the hour you
request for testing via Skype. Multiply by $80.

Good luck again.
