ahem, OpenOffice basic is not VBA, it does have a VBA compatibility mode,
regardless both OpenOffice basic and VBA share many common syntax, in this case
it appears that handling of ':' for appending separate statements could be
improved e.g. openoffice basic seems not to handle a ":" immediately after
"then" ( as I have changed the bug summary to state )

so, this is exactly the bug that you are reporting, why didn't you state that
initially?
->ab can I pass this one to you ( well I just did ;-) )
>Then, I removed the colons and put the following statements on new lines. The

so, as pointed out by rainerbielefeld you need to look at the guidelines for
bugs, you need to help us help you, one bug per problem is the only sensible way
to ensure help to clarify/track/fix/address each individual issue. Furthermore
you can help by trying to breakdown those bugs by providing the smallest
possible example that demonstrates the problem in a reproducible way. You
understand the example that you provide better than we can and you are in a
position to break it down better than us. Please help with that and open
seperate issue for those you find.
