Good day!
We have clients with LibreOffice and would like to export reports or grid information into a spreadsheet. How can we directly configure NAV to use LibreOffice Calc instead of looking for Excel?
Thank you.

1. Look at Table t370. There are functions like: CreateBook(), OpenBook(), CreateSheet(), AddColumn() etc.
2. Write your own funcktions like CreateBookLibreOffice(), OpenBookLO(), CreateSheetLO(). If only LibreOffice has its own Automation Servers it is possible. (I am not sure, because I haven't installed Libre on my computer).
3. On a report that should be exported do LibreOffice, write a code that opens a LibreOffice Sheet and Fills it. Write it using your new functions: CreateBookLO(), OpenBookLO(), CreateSheetLO(), AddColumnLO(). Of course programming you can take a pattern from native NAV code
