The VBA Click and Doubleclick events are not available in OpenOffice.org Basic. Instead use the
OpenOffice.org Basic MouseUp event for the click event and imitate the Doubleclick event by changing
the application logic.
Keyboard Events
The following keyboard events are available in OpenOffice.org Basic:
Key pressed
user presses a key.
Key released
user releases a key
Both events relate to logical key actions and not to physical actions. If the user presses
several keys to output a single character (for example, to add an accent to a character),
then OpenOffice.org Basic only creates one event.
A single key action on a modification key, such as the Shift key or the Alt key does not
create an independent event.
Information about a pressed key is provided by the event object that OpenOffice.org Basic
supplies to the procedure for event handling. It contains the following properties:
KeyCode (short)
code of the pressed key (default values in accordance with
com.sun.star.awt.Key
)
KeyChar (String)
character that is entered (taking the modification keys into consideration)
The following example uses the KeyCode property to establish if the Enter key, the Tab key,
or one of the other control keys has been pressed. If one of these keys has been pressed,
the name of the key is returned, otherwise the character that was typed is returned:
Sub KeyPressed(Event As Object)
Dim Msg As String
