Powerpoint viewtype problem

[Guest]

I tried to differentiate programmatically between nomal and master view in
powerpoint using the powerpoint object model. I was able to get it in
powepoint 2000. How can i differentiate in other versions of powerpoint

This is the method i tried
ActivePresentation.Windows(1).View.Type

It retuns the same value for nomal and master views in powerpoint 2002 and
powerpoint 2003, and hence cannot identify the master slide view. It returns
different values in powepoint 2000 which is the correct behaviour.

Depending on what you're doing, this may help:

Debug.Print ActiveWindow.View.Slide.Name
