OpenOffice.org objects and methods, such as paragraphs, spreadsheets, and fonts, are accessible to OpenOffice.org Basic through the OpenOffice.org application programming interface, or API. Through the API, for example, documents can be created, opened, modified and printed. The API can be used not only by OpenOffice.org Basic, but also by other programming languages, such as Java and C++. The interface between the API and various programming languages is provided by something called Universal Network Objects (UNUNO).
