in [Powerpoint]

From: David Marcovitz on 5 May 2010 12:03 Yes, now that I'm not looking at the original message, I'm not sure, but I thought that was what the code was that you posted. The GotoSlide method has two parameters: the slide number to go to and whether or not to reset the animation on that slide. Something along the lines of: ActivePresentation.SlideShowWindow.View.GotoSlide 3, msoTrue says go to slide 3 and reset the animation (msoFalse would not reset the animation). --David On 5/5/10 11:57 AM, RJ wrote: > Would it be possible to have code that would both return the slide and > rebuild the animation all in one action button and what would that code look > like? -- David M.
