Assigning a Macro to a button

[sharp_shooter]

Hi
I'm fairly new to Open Office
I'm having trouble assigning Macro's that have been written in Open Office to buttons.
The macros work fine when run, but the instructions in the help seem to be as clear as mud regarding assigning to buttons.
Any help gratefully received.

I assume you have already drawn the button using the tool bar accessible from View -> Toolbars -> Form Controls. Use that tool bar to put the button in Design Mode. You do that with the icon that represents a drawing triangle, ruler and pencil, which is the second icon on the tool bar. Now right click on the button and select Control. On the Events tab click the little button on the far right of the item Mouse Button Released and then click the Macro button. After a few moments a dialog will appear where you can navigate to the location of the macro. Navigate through the Libraries and Modules and choose the procedure you want to run with the button. Click OK to get out of dialogs. Now use the Form Control tool bar to get out of Design Mode using the same icon as before. Clicking the button should now trigger the macro.
