Hello!
I want to use Shell32 as part of my macros, but getting “Unknown Data Type” error
I read that I need to add “microsoft shell controls and automation” reference to the module. Now, in Excel you merely have to click Tools → Add reference.
For the life of me, I spent 15 minutes and I can’t find ANYTHING similar in LibreOffice.
Help?
Welcome, and I’m really impressed by your invested time…

Usually there is not much demand to use specific Windows-Code in a portable Programm, wich runs also on Linux or MacOS, but it was possible to interface to dlls, but Extensions for Excel will usually not work in LibreOffice.
However: Keep an eye on the topic 32 and 64-bit. It may be easier to attempt this from 32-bit LibreOffice…
