Hello,

I have never used PPoint VBA before but am familiar with Excel VBA. Rather
embarrassingly, I am stuck right at the beginning. I am putting together a
quiz and have found some examples that I intend to use.

The problem is that when I open the VBA Editor, I was expecting to see a
list os slides in the Project Explorer (the same as in Excel) but all I get
is a VBAProject. The samples I looked at have a 'Microsoft PowerPoint
Objects' folder containing slide objects. How do I include this in my
presentation?

Thanks,
MarkN

Hi

This is obviously a big subject! Powerpoint vba is quite different from excel

Your start point is to go to the vba editor, select your presentation and
insert a module.

There's a programming section if you scroll down here

I did spot your post (in the wrong topic)!

Like I said its a big topic. You will only see "slides" if you insert activX
objects eg command buttons and you probably dont need to.

The quiz 05.02 here is very very basic but it should show you how
subroutines in a module can be called from any slide by using action settings
on a button or shape (select a button and slide show > action settings to see
its action)

Hope that helps
