I need help trying to figure out a way to utilize "any" option that will allow me to place multiple checkboxes on a page, that will once all checkboxes are checked will result in a green autoshape box being placed on page 2 of my show, which is the checklist page. If all of the boxes on a specific page are not checked then that section will show a red autoshape box. Help!!!! I am using Powerpoint 2003. Bridget I don't think there's any way to do this except using vba code. Is this something you understand at all?

I am using Powerpoint 2003. As John said, this requires VBA. I have a similar (but not exactly the same) example on my Web site. In this example, a menu marks of what areas have been visited. Once you visit all areas, a "Quiz" button is revealed. This is Example 7.11 on my site: http://www.PowerfulPowerPoint.com/ Click on Examples by Chapter and Chapter 7. --David SignatureDavid M.

I am using Powerpoint 2003. I have a small amount of code in this powerpoint. I am in no ways completely knowledgeable about how to get this done.

Hi Bridget I'm sure it could but we would need to have the presentation to do this for you and I'm afraid there would be a small charge.

I am using Powerpoint 2003. Is there anyone that can help without a fee. I need a changing object to show up on another slide, when it changes on slide x it will change on slide y. > Hi Bridget > [quoted text clipped - 52 lines] > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Help!!!! I am using Powerpoint 2003. Since John's been writing your code, I've lost track of where you are and haven't looked at his code. With VBA, it is not hard to change a shape on more than one slide. The trick is to have some way of identifying the shape. For example, if the shape is always shape #3, then you can do things to: ActivePresentation.Slides(####).Shapes(3)..... where #### is replaced by the slide number you want to affect. However, it is difficult to know if the shape is always going to be shape 3. In that case, you might want to name the shape (Example 8.7 on my site has code for naming shapes). Then you can refer to the shape by name. For example, if the shape is named MyCheckMark, you could impact it on another slide with: ActivePresentation.Slides(####).Shapes("MyCheckMark")..... I'm afraid that John has already gone above and beyond the call of duty by providing you with the examples that he has. In general, you will find people here happy to help you as you struggle through writing your own code, but it is rare that you will find someone to actually write the code for you free of charge. --David SignatureDavid M.

I am using Powerpoint 2003. David/John, In no way am I trying to discredit or be unappreciative for the information that I have received. I was just so close to getting it work that I thought I would try to see if anyone else knew how to make it work. I may have just been unable to communicate what it was that I needed, which I totally take the blame for. I just noticed on post after post that people were excited about getting their project to work and I was eagerly trying to get mine to work as well. It isn't as though I just sit her trying to get someone to do my powerpoint. I have been on 10+ sites searching to figure this out. Thanks a Million You Guys for the info you've provided. > Since John's been writing your code, I've lost track of where you are > and haven't looked at his code.

And in no way I am trying to imply that no one will help you. We are happy to help you. See what you can do with the code yourself. Then, post what you have, what it is doing, and what you want it to do that it's not doing, and someone here should be able to help you tweak your code. Just remember that some people here do this kind of thing as a business and will only give away so much "free product." Others of us do this on the side, in addition to our regular jobs; we're happy to do what we can for free, but we all have limited time. --David SignatureDavid M.
