You can't. Nor should you.

LO is not m$. Create all your styles (not macros, they are terrible
functions to use) in LO, creating native odf files. Perform a
cost-benefit analysis of your time to learn LO, the advantages of odf,
etc. and compare to the cost of using m$ and decide which to use
accordingly.

Do not use LO as a free opportunity to write and create m$ documents.
