Hi,

I now tested with the new 6.1.2 Release. 
I still get an "incorrect property value" error with
      Dim sNewUrl As String
      sNewURL = oBitmaps.getByName( "OOoLilyPond" )   
but as soon as I declare sNewUrl as "Object" instead of "String", it works
now. (This was not yet the case in 6.1.1.)

Would it be possible to get the "old" code working despite the "wrong"
String type? If not, it would require different macro versions for different
LO releases.

I'll try my best...  ;-) but it would help me to know what "expected
behaviour" is possible. 
(And I'd like to put the same fixes for Draw and Impress on the wishlist.)

A big THANK YOU to everyone involved!
