Isak Frants proposed the following answer:
I found something!
Can you do this?
1. Go to: /usr/lib/openoffice/basis3.1/presets/basic
2. Do you see script.xlc and dialog.xlc ? Copy these into ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/basic/ . (Make backup of the files found here first)
By the way, "~/" is "/home/YOURNAME/". The dot "." before openoffice.org means that the folder is hidden and you have to press Ctrl H in Nautilus to see it. 

3. Go to: /usr/lib/openoffice/basis3.1/presets/basic/Standard
4. Do you see script.xlb and dialog.xlb ? Copy these into ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/basic/Standard . (Make backup of the files found here first)

If you like to do it in a terminal:
First we make backup:
cp ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/basic/script.xlc ~/backup/basic/script.xlc
cp ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/basic/dialog.xlc ~/backup/basic/dialog.xlc
cp ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/basic/Standard/script.xlb ~/backup/basic/Standard/script.xlb
cp ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/basic/Standard/dialog.xlb ~/backup/basic/Standard/dialog.xlb

Then we replace the corrupted ones with proper stuff:
cd /usr/lib/openoffice/basis3.1/presets/basic
cp script.xlc ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/basic/script.xlc
cp dialog.xlc ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/basic/dialog.xlc
cd /usr/lib/openoffice/basis3.1/presets/basic/Standard
cp script.xlb ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/basic/Standard/script.xlb
cp dialog.xlb ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/basic/Standard/dialog.xlb
