OOo3 and BasicAddOnBuilder

Macros into OOo Extensions (i.e. menu items and toolbar buttons). I

used it today to create a custom button that takes the user to

Clipart.com (we have a subscription via our AEA). One of the complaints

I get about OOo is the lack of clipart. Although I have made every

effort to add everything I can via install scripts, this button should

make it easier to use ClipArt.com as well.
