This code was originally written on the oooforum, you can reach it here. The code was somewhat broken down into different areas so the reader can understand each step.

The intend of the code is to:

  1. Create a new spreadsheet
  2. Open an existing spreadsheet
  3. Insert strings inito a cell
  4. Insert formulas into a cell
  5. Insert graphs to a range

Take data from a Writer's table and insert in Calc

This code tries to do as mentioned, extract a table data from Writer and insert it in a Calc document.

Sub Main 
   ' Work with the writer document that this macro is embedded into. 
   oWriterDoc = ThisComponent 
 
   ' Get the collection of tables from the Writer doc.

   ' To see or change the name of a table, first click in the table, 
   '  then Format-->Table, pick the Table tab, and adjust the Name. 
   oWriterTable = oWriterTables.getByName( "FooBar" ) 
 
   ' Find out how many Rows and Columns the table has. 
   nRows = oWriterTable.getRows().getCount()

   oSheet = oCalcDoc.getSheets().getByIndex( 0 )

   ' Determine where we are going to insert the data from the Writer table. 
   nFirstRow = 6 
   nFirstCol = 2 
 
   ' Copy the data, row by row, column by column 
   For nRow = 0 To nRows-1 
      For nCol = 0 To nCols-1 
         oWriterCell = oWriterTable.getCellByPosition( nCol, nRow ) 
         oCalcCell = oSheet.getCellByPosition( nCol+nFirstCol, nRow+nFirstRow ) 
 
         ' If the cell has a formula, then copy that... 
         If oWriterCell.getFormula() <> "" Then 
            oCalcCell.setFormula( oWriterCell.getFormula() ) 
 
         ' If the cell has a non-zero numeric value, then copy that... 
         ElseIf oWriterCell.getValue() <> 0 Then 
            oCalcCell.setValue( oWriterCell.getValue() ) 
            ' Question... what if the cell is numeric, but zero? 
         ElseIf oWriterCell.getString() = "0" Then 
            oCalcCell.setValue( oWriterCell.getValue() ) 
 
         Else 
            oCalcCell.setString( oWriterCell.getString() ) 
         EndIf 
      Next 
   Next
