[sandy]

Hi

In a macro, I'd like to change the slide displayed.

If NetworkConnection = 1 Then
ActiveWindow.View.GotoSlide (49) 'Slide 49
MsgBox "conn = 1"
Else
ActiveWindow.View.GotoSlide (48) ' Slide 48
MsgBox "conn = 0"
End If

It doesn't work. Can u plz help me?

If this is running in Slide Show mode, try:

ActivePresentation.SlideShowWindow.View.GotoSlide (49)

If this is running in Normal view, then try

ActivePresentation.Slides(49).Select

Hi Sandy,
This code will work provided it is running in the design environment, it
does not apply to the slideshow view.
