Installation of XNumbers 0.11
First, open the OpenOffice.org Basic Macros dialog as shown below.
There are five modules to be installed. Click on organizer

We will move each module in trun from the Standard library in the install document to the Standard library under My Macros using drag and drop technique.
Once the modules are transferred, the install document can be closed and the XNumbers functions will be available every time OOo Calc is invoked.

My workmate was saying how he spent ages trying to write an extended precision program in C. Then he discovered it was already done in Java. Well, now it's in OOoCalc! Super dooper! Now I won't need to remember PI to the 40,000 decimal place any more.
