Powerpoint questions 1

[Fursten]

Hi,

Is it possible to make the slide show of a Powerpoint apresentation start running as soon as one click in the file and open it?

Another one: is there any event that will start running as soon as a powerpoint file is opened?

thank you.

One option is to save your presentation file as *.pps file which when opened runs the Power Point Shlide show.

If you are coding, You can try the following snippet.

With Activepresentation.Slides.Range.SlideShowTransition
.EntryEffect = ppEffectDissolve
.AdvanceOnTime = msoTrue
.AdvanceTime = 5
End With

With Activepresentation.SlideShowSettings
.ShowType = ppShowTypeKiosk
.LoopUntilStopped = msoFalse
.RangeType = ppShowAll
.AdvanceMode = ppSlideShowUseSlideTimings
.Run

Do While .Run.View.State = ppSlideShowRunning
DoEvents
Loop
End With

Hope this helps.
