Hi

I am using PowerPoint 2002.

Is there a way to run a macro each time a slide is changed in a PPS file?
Also, is there any kind of an auto_run macro in PowerPoint like excels
Auto_open or Workbook_open?

Thanks

Ken
 
The answer to both is 'sort of'.

If you install an event trap, than you can capture the 'next slide' event or
the 'Presentation open' event. However, you are asking about a pps file,
which suggests distribution. An event trap can only be installed (and
VBA/macro configured) on a machine level so these would not be portable.
You would need to configure the macro security levels and add the event
trapping add-in to each machine that was to run the presentation.
