Description of problem:
I am trying to use the OOoLatexMacro package with Openoffice Impress (see http://ooolatex.sourceforge.net/)

When you run this, an error is generated, and the debugger window pops up.  After a few exchanged with the developer, it seems that the problem is confined to the Linux version of Openoffice (and perhaps even just Fedora).  The developer posted some comments on the oooforum:

http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=29778

A simple test case is to try running the macro:

Sub Main
Dim NoArg()
cURL = "file:///home/<login>/tmpfile.png"
oDrawDoc = StarDesktop.loadComponentFromURL( cURL, "_blank", 0, NoArg() )
MsgBox oDrawDoc.DBG_properties
End sub 

under Fedora, this crashes, with the error "BASIC runtime error. Object variable not set", and the debugger pops up with the "MsgBox..." line highlighted.

There is some evidence in the oooforum thread that this works fine in Mandriva.

I am attaching the macro and script to reproduce this problem.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.0.1-143.2.1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run the macro
2.
3.
  

Actual Results:  debugger pops up.

Expected Results:  image should appear
