kind help required from a true beginner

[Gnappo.ichiban]

Hi all.

I'm not absolutely familiar with VBA for PPT but my wife (sigh!) needs, for
an auto-running presentation, to randomly display in several slides some
numbers so.....I must "DO IT, AND QUICKLY!!!"

More into detail:

the presentation will be made by tenths of slides that will be animated and
will change automatically using PPT presentation features (delay, slide
change and so on).
When entering automatically in some of them, the slide must show its regular
text, images and so on, but also two or three integer numbers randomly
generated between a certain range (from 1 to 90).
The generation of new numbers must be done any time "that" slide (showing
numbers) is displayed during the presentation. Then, after a variable time,
the presentation must proceed regularly with next slide.

Is anybody so kind to help me?
Or do you know where can I find some sample to use?

I already googled the net but with very very poor results (very probably
because my VBA experience is too poor).

Thanks a lot to who would find some minute to help a poor husband!

Happy new year to you all.

Gnappo

Gnappo,

I hope this isn't too late. I have not been on the newsgroup over the
holiday break. You might try Example 8.15 at my site:

This example uses VBA to generate random addition problems. There is more
stuff there than you need, but it will give you the basics of displaying
random numbers.
