 Carl ,

With the joined code you can make the wanted "NewWritterTemplate.ott" working

Hope it helps

Fernand

Sub set_new_writerTemplate()
 GlobalScope.BasicLibraries.loadLibrary("myTools")
sNode = "org.openoffice.Setup/Office/Factories/com.sun.star.text.TextDocument"
     sProperty = "ooSetupFactoryTemplateFile"
'*****OPGELET***** the file must been in the Template directory ! 'moet in een TEMPLATE-directorie staan, anders werkt het NIET*****
      sValue = "file:///t:/template/tools/New_WriterTemplate.ott"
     setOOoSetupValue(sNode, sProperty, sValue)
 End Sub

 Function setOOoSetupValue(sNodePath$, sProperty$, sValue$) as boolean
 on error goto exitErr
 Dim bReturn as Boolean, xconfig, xAccess
 dim aArgs(0) as  Object
  dim aPropValue as new  com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
xconfig = createunoservice("com.sun.star.configuration.ConfigurationProvider")
     aPropValue.Name = "nodepath"
     aPropValue.Value = sNodePath '"org.openoffice.Office.Linguistic"
     aArgs(0) = aPropValue
xAccess = xconfig.createinstanceWithArguments("com.sun.star.configuration.ConfigurationUpdateAccess",aArgs())
     xAccess.setPropertyValue(sProperty, sValue)
     xAccess.commitchanges
     bReturn = True
 exitErr:
     setOOoSetupValue = bReturn
 End Function
 Function getOOoSetupValue(sNodePath$,sProperty$)
Dim aConfigProvider, oNode, args(0) As new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue aConfigProvider = createUnoService("com.sun.star.configuration.ConfigurationProvider")
     args(0).Name = "nodepath"
     args(0).Value = sNodePath
oNode = aConfigProvider.createInstanceWithArguments("com.sun.star.configuration.ConfigurationAccess", args())
 getOOoSetupValue = oNode.getbyname(sProperty)
 End Function


As far as I understand I should be able to set the default font and font size in the main.xcd file
The only problem is that Im not sure what the format should be... :(

I tried the template way. I created a template and copied it to every machine via a script. It does not seem to get used though. I think I need to tell every installation that it should use this file as the default template. How would this be done? Also in the main.xcd file?

Hi :)
There is a folder called "templates" in the user-profile
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/UserProfile
but there seem to be other weird places too and i am not sure which is used and whether any of them are not used. Looking in

Tools - Options - Paths

You can see that the templates path is has a few different alternatives rather than just one but did not seem to include the path to the folder in the user-profile!

Aaaargh!!  Is it easy enough to add an extra path?
Regards from
Tom :)

Yes all these users are using different flavours of Windows
Can you push a template out over your network? I am not sure of the exact location of the template folder, but should be similar for all the Windows machines (I use Linux). I would look for LO in the Program folder and navigate to the template folder. You could have a problem with 32 and 64 bit locations.

Hi,

I need to change the default margins and font in Libreoffice Writer and Calc for a group of about 100 users. How can I do this without having to go and do it manually on every PC?

Where is the user data stored? If on a server, create a new default template and update the appropriate file in each user folder (or alternately change the default template location). If locally, I do not have a good idea.

Also, what OS's are involved, I assume Windows.
