Hello,

I think want to design an "Add-On" which will throw up a GUI and I will enter some info and then it will make a plot....what language is recommended?? Any example code?? I would like to match the look and feel of OpenOffice (I am using Mac OS X) but might want it to be cross platform compatible if possible (work on Linux too).

Thanks,

Saleem

The Java AWT pointer is very useful. My question is must the user interface be developed in Java. Or developing the user interface in Basic, C++ or Python are possible too.

Anything except Basic can add components to this office suite.
