Is there a way to track the author property on a
presentation? Specifically, if it's possible to find out
when an author was changed. Any ideas?

thanks,
Karen

Karen,
This depends on your requirement. You can read the document properties using
VBA code and check. However it depends on what and how you intend to make it
work.

Hmm.

You could use Shyam's event handling code to test the Author property on
save or open and compare it to a tag you've applied to the presentation to
store the previous author info.

With a little more effort, you could probably track the saves through
several authors.
