Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 108283
Is it possible to grey out the macro-secutity in optionsmenu?
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:29:29 UTC
Hello, we tried to secure our network with policies and different user- rights. Now we noticed that it is possible, even for a normal user, to loosen the macro- security in OOo via the options- menu. Is it possible to grey out this site for normal users or to forbid starting this mask all together? Ideally one would install OOo and then, depending on the users authentication, the edit rights would be set, is this feasible? Basically user- orientated. Administrators would than still get access to the macro level. How can we best achieve this? What config- file should we edit, the common.xcu ( "install-dir/user/registry/data/org/openoffice/Office/Common.xcu" or "install-dir/share/registry/data/org/openoffice/Office/Common.xcu")? Or is it another file where you configurate the optionsmenu? Thank you for helping.

Have a look at: C:\Programme\OpenOffice.org 3\Basis\share\registry\schema\org\openoffice\Office\OptionsDialog.xcs i will include a sample *.xcu file

OOo's configuration core already has support for such szenarios, but no easy tooling. A quick search gave me this old email which contains some information and further links: http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=dev&msgNo=5108
