[Gambas-user] Connect to and control LibreOffice

[Doug Hutcheson]

On the page http://gambaswiki.org/wiki/doc/intro?nh is this
information:

Gambas is build on top of many free softwares, and could not exist
without them.
So I would like to thank every people involved in the following
projects:
 * Linux
 * KDE
 * GCC and all of the GNU tools, of course.
 * The Qt toolkit.
 * The GIMP and its toolkit GTK+.
 * Libre Office.
 * The MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite database management systems.
 * And any other libraries used by Gambas.

The reference to LibreOffice is interesting. Does it mean there are
built-in 'hooks' into LibreOffice? I suppose that would be too much to
hope for, but perhaps there is a 'bridge' between LO and Gambas? I need
to update several LO spreadsheets in tandem with creating and
maintaining a new PostgreSQL database storing the same data but in
properly normalised tables.I cannot change the structure of the
existing spreadsheets, so just uncompressing them and running search-
and-replace processes is not quite good enough.

Any pointers to help in this would be welcome, even if only to say I am
wasting my time.    "8-)
Kind regards,
Doug
