notes resizing

[Steve]

I am looking for a way to resize the notes area on all pages of a
presentation. I found a macro on the PPT FAQ web page that resizes the slide
area of all notes pages based on notes master, but not the notes area. I
could edit the macro myself if I knew the notes area placeholder(?) name.
For example, the macro I'm using references the slide as 'oslideshape'. Is
there a name like this for the notes area? I've guessed at several and
searched the web but with no luck.

Where Steve's (Steve R) tests for

If .NotesPage.Shapes(x).PlaceholderFormat.Type = ppPlaceholderTitle Then

You would need to test for

If .NotesPage.Shapes(x).PlaceholderFormat.Type = ppPlaceholderBody Then

This, also from the PPT FAQ, includes a bit of code that locates the notes text
placeholder:

See if that makes sense to you. If not holler.

Thanks, John.
