Remove option 'Update Automaticaly'

[s3cardi]

Hi,

I want to execute a VBA Macro each time a user print a
PowerPoint document using Microsoft PowerPoint2000. This
macro must uncheck the option 'Update Automaticaly' for
each date in the document inserted from the commamd
Insert 'Date&Time' before the document being printed.

Is it possible?
If you have other idea (certainly best) to do this, I'm
interested too.

Thank in advance for your help.

Patrick.

Patrick,
The behaviour is controlled by the UseFormat property for the DateTime field
' ----- Beginning Of Code -----
If ActivePresentation.HasTitleMaster Then
With ActivePresentation.TitleMaster.HeadersFooters
With .DateAndTime
.UseFormat = msoFalse
.Visible = msoTrue
End With
End With
End If
With ActivePresentation.SlideMaster.HeadersFooters
With .DateAndTime
.UseFormat = msoFalse
.Visible = msoTrue
End With
End With
' ----- End Of Code -----
Note: For 2002 & later you will need to enumerate the designs collection and
do the same as above since it supports multiple designs in the same
presentation.
