MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / November 2006keyboard shortcuts
Hello How can I obtain progrmatically, a list with the keyboard shortcuts assigned to menus items, commands etc in PowerPoint (like Save, Close, Cut, Copy, Paste etc.) ? Any help will be very appreciated. Thanks, Calin Help, Keyboard shortcuts will give you all the shortcuts  SignatureMichael Koerner MS MVP - PowerPoint > Hello > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Thanks, Calin Thanks. But I need to get programmatically which shortcut it is assigned for a command. For example : I need the shortcut assiged for Save command or for Copy command etc. Is it possible ? It is strange because in Word is very easy, also in Excel (I'm not very sure). regards, Calin > Help, Keyboard shortcuts will give you all the shortcuts > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] >> >> Thanks, Calin Calin, I don't believe this is available from the PPT object model. Other than going through it manually I don't know how you would get a list. If you can explain what you are trying to do maybe we can offer some suggestions. Austin Myers MS PowerPoint MVP Team Provider of PFCMedia, PFCPro, PFCExpress http://www.pfcmedia.com > Hello > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Thanks, Calin Thanks Austin. I was afraid of this. I searched all the properties and methods from PPT object model in MSDN and I found nothing, but i thought that maybe is an easy trick or something. What I want to do, is to install a keyboard hook for the some PowerPoint commands. Some of them can be handle in other ways because they also fires PPT events, like Save - Ctrl+S, New - Ctrl+N, Open - Ctrl+O etc. but I don't know how to do it in case of Copy - Ctrl+C, Cut - Ctrl+X etc. Do you have any ideea ? best regards, Calin > Calin, > [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] >> >> Thanks, Calin There is already a utility to assign keyboard shortcuts.

Unfortunatelly it is not usable in my project. I think I'll go forward by hardcoding the shortcuts, because I don't think that are changed very often (or I hope so :-)) regards, Calin > There is already a utility to assign keyboard shortcuts.

Well, there've been no changes at least since Windows 3.0 came out, and if memory serves, they go back a version or to before that. I don't think you have to worry about them changing. > regards, Calin > [quoted text clipped - 38 lines] > >>>> > >>>> Thanks, Calin ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ > Hello > > How can I obtain progrmatically, a list with the keyboard shortcuts assigned > to menus items, commands etc in PowerPoint (like Save, Close, Cut, Copy, > Paste etc.) ? Possibly overkill, but type "Keyboard Shortcuts" into the help box. In 2003, the first listing in the search results is the one you want. The second, here titled "Assign or change a keyboard shortcut" is almost totally inaccurate. Best ignored. ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================
