I can create a Macro that deletes selected objects within a slide.  I can
execute this from the Macro menu.  However I need to execute it via an Action
button.  I can add the action button, select run macro radio button, select
the Macro (which works perfectly from the macro menu).

Launch PPT and the Macro won't work.  Other action buttons work fine (they
are playing sounds and moving to specific slides.  However, I can't get the
delete one to work.

Ideas?

Thanks

Deleting an object while in Edit Mode is not the same as removing an object
while in Slide Show mode.  Check out the following for more info:

Also, it is a good idea to post your code so folks can check it out and
possibly provide corrections.
