[libreoffice-users] Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Find Character Styles

Hi Drew,

Thanks for taking a look at this. For me the macro fails on all LO 6.x.x
versions under Windows. I have the same issue with the macro on LO 6.1.2
under Linux. For anyone who might be interested I have uploaded a PDF
illustrating the problem here:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/0328n1p4ob305o1/Alt_Find_%2526_Replace_Error.pdf/file

It certainly seems like all support for the macro has been dropped. The
author's website http://mujweb.cz/ closed down in September.

Sadly, my macro writing/debugging skills are not of a very high standard
and my knowledge of the macro author's language (Czech?) is
non-existent. Otherwise I would take a shot at fixing the code.

At first I thought it was this Windows 7 box which hates LO, or maybe
it's the other way round. Where I have a myriad of problems that only
affect LO and make it almost unusable.

Dave
