Starbasic is reasonably close in capability to VBA, but the
documentation on it still seems to be poor. It would be best to check
with the OpenOffice.org web site, making sure to browse the archives of
the 'users' mailing list as several people have put bits up on the web
but have not managed to get links from the project site.

OOo still has a limitation on number of rows which is also causing problems
to some.
