Copy Mainsequence Items.

[Guest]

I am into Powerpoint Automation. I m using VBA.

I want to copy mainsequence items of one ppt into another. I could have just
done a simple "Save As" for the original ppt and got the mainsequence items
in the new one. But, I don't want items in the same sequence. For example I
want to put MainSequence.Item(1) of first ppt as MainSequence.Item(2) of
second ppt. So, my main problem is to copy the item(1) from the first ppt to
item(2) of the second ppt.

I tried the MainSequence.Clone method but it is not help. What I was trying
was:

PPT2.Timeline.MainSequence.Clone PPT1.Timeline.MainSequence.Item(1) , -1

I thought this will create a clone of Item(1) of first PPT into PPT2. But,
it created the clone in first ppt itself.

So, can anyone help me in this regard?

Thanks in advance.

You can only clone an animation to the shape carrying the animation
itself. Search the shape bound to animation effect and copy and paste
this shape ...
