Best way to create a form in OpenOffice (or sth else?)

Question

Hi I'm looking for a way to script an OpenOffice document so it would:

• have only parts editable
• do some magic with saving it (i'd like to save it into some generated from the entered content name)
• be reasonably easy to implement

I've looked into this question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/261318/what-is-the-single-best-online-source-for-learning-openoffice-org-scripting-api

and it seems helpful, however I can't find other things to be easily done.

I'd be grateful for help in this matter.

Answer 1

Actually there is something that would suffice without a lot of hassle. This would be XForms, described here:

This does pretty much anything I assumed it should.
