[libreoffice-users] Re: Problems exporting and importing a dialogue

Gabriele,

A Dialogue (or Dialog if you like the US spelling) is a feature of Libre
Office which does not appear to be documented anywhere in the User Guides.
It allows you to display a window with controls (much like a form) so that
the user can interact with the document at runtime. Look in the LO help
files under "Macros and programming|Guides" where there is some (but not a
lot of) useful information.

I use a dialogue in Calc to allow the user to enter values which, when an
"OK" button is pressed, are entered into the correct cells in a spreadsheet
using macro code in LO Basic. But it's not confined to Calc - you can write
a dialogue in any LO application.
