Link to browser in Writer

I would like to know how to import this macro ( InternetSearch2.odt ) so it works for all of my Writer documents. So far, it only works when I open the macro directly into Writer. Thank you.

@msea,

The explanation is in the last paragraph of the answer. The macro needs to be copied into the Standard library under MyMacros. It can be in any module under the Standard library there. The Standard library is loaded automatically when LibreOffice is started.

Just re-tested and works for me Currently on Ubuntu 20.04 Mate with LO v6.4.5.2 and tested with Firefox as default.

I did see that last paragraph you mention and tried to figure it out. I am assuming one copies the maco file into a folder thru either the Windows or Linux folder system. I am using Windows 10 64 bit and cannot find the folder called My Macros. If my approach is correct, pls let me know where I can find that folder. If my approach is not correct, please instruct otherwise. Thanks.

@msea,

Best if you look at the documentation → here. See Getting Started with LibreOffice section and look at Chapter #13 - Getting Started with Macros.

Thanks for the lead and your time. I am sure I will figure it out. Just needed a point in the right direction. Good to hear it also works in Linux as I’m a fan of Lubuntu. I may switch permanently someday soon. Cheers.
