Re: [libreoffice-users] Programatically changing the properties of a multselection (group)

Hi :)
Brilliant!  Nicely found!  I didn't realise you had already read both of them and i don't normally 
like rtfm-type answers so we both got lucky there.
Regards from
Tom :)

Thanks Tom,

I have both of the references you referred to, but as you suggested I went back to them while I was 
waiting for a reply. On the umpteenth time going through the Basic Guide I found a code snippet 
that made an obscure reference to getGroupByName, and that was the piece I was missing!

Thanks again to you and Jay Lozier for your help.

Best Regards,
Russ Mileham
