createUnoService

[AWT_Lyle]

I've been using Excel VBA and am migrating to OO Calc. I ran the record macro to save a workbook and the code included the following:

[document = ThisComponent.CurrentController.Frame
dispatcher = createUnoService("com.sun.star.frame.DispatchHelper")]

Where would look to get to know what functions are available such as "createUnoService" and methods such as ("com.sun.star.frame.DispatchHelper").
Where would I go to learn what "ThisComponent.CurrentController.Frame" is or when to use it?
