I have a macro:

Sub MyMacro
  Msgbox "This is my macro."
End Sub

When I click on a button associated with this macro, it won't run.  I
checked the Macro Security settings and found it was on "High".  I
changed it to "Low" and I continue to have the problem...

HELP!

After you changed the security setting, did you close and re-open PPT? It
might be that since it was on high when you created the macro, PPT let you
create the macro and then ignored it.

Thanks Kathy - DUH - guess I wasn't totally thinking that day.  We did
close PowerPoint and reopened with success!  I found the person I was
working with never shuts her pc down at night.  I "assumed" she was
doing this and thus was shutting ppt down.  Not the case upon further
investigation.

I appreciate your help!

Thanks for getting back to us that it worked. (FYI: This is exactly why I
suggested it. I have many clients who don't close PPT and can't understand
why changes I tell them to make don't show. :) )
