Resume SlideShow

[Abhishek]

Hi!

I want to know how can i get the functionality of the resume slideshow
button in my code

I want to continue/resume a presentation from my code itself rather than
clicking on the resume slide show that comes within PPT

Regards,
Abhishek

Thanks Bill
I am doing exactly the same but i'll describe my problem a bit more
I am trapping all the evnts of PPT
E.g. SlideShowBegin
SlideShowEnd
I am able to trap SlideShowEnd but unable to trap SlideshowBegin
I am using PPT XP and C#(Can C# be an issue)
Whenever i start the slideShow with .Run method it goes to the SlideShow
view and then pauses the Slideshow

Might be a silly question because of your background, but do you have an
initial animation that is requiring a mouse click?

No thats not the case.
Actually i have figured out the problem
I am displaying a messagebox on executing the slideshow that is pausing the
slideshow.
Now my issue has changed , i want to display a dialog box or a popup message
and whenever i do that my slideshow pauses. Now is there any workaround to
this .
Kindly guide me to this.

Are you saying that you have animations that are animating while your dialog
box is on the screen? I haven't really had an occasion to see if that will
happen, but if you do, set the next animation to appear on a mouse click
then in the code behind the OK button on your dialog box add the line:

ActivePresentation.SlideShowWindow.View.Next

Your next animation should start and all subsequent ones (if timed) will
continue.

I am displaying a messagebox on executing the slideshow that is pausing the

slideshow.

Messageboxes are always modal, aren't they? In other words, Windows pauses
everything until the user dismisses the messagebox.

At least that's how it works in VB/VBA. I think perhaps there are other ways
of doing msgboxes available to C et al.

In VBA, PPT2000 or later, you can display a user form as modal or modeless; I
haven't tried modeless forms over a slide show but perhaps that might help.

Yeah you are correct they are modal and hence the problem I'am trying the
similar, hope that works.
