I have a Tablet PC which I’m using to host a PowerPoint. One of the slides
has an object with action setting to use macro to launch an external program.
For macro, I’m using:
Shell “file.exeâ€, vbHide
Now this launches the “file.exe†just fine except occasionally the
application would automatically minimize and focus back to the PowerPoint. I
have run same PowerPoint on non-tablet PC and I have yet to see this
“minimization†problem. Has anybody seen this happened to them? I’m trying
to figure out if it’s the PowerPoint minimizing the application, is the OS
minimizing the application or it’s something special within Tablet PCs. To
further clarify the situation, I would only click once on the activation
object to launch the macro. So it’s not like I’m accidentally clicking on
the object to launch the macro and then second click on the slide to switch
focus. If anybody has any comments or insights, I would be much grateful.
Cheers!
