Gentlemen, thank you both.

Could anyone recommend a way to have the browser load its page as soon as
the slide opens, and not display anything until the page is loaded? Or
display something innocuous until the desired page is loaded?

Many thanks!

So make the AX control invisible, allowing the picture to show, and make it
visible again only once the needed URL has loaded? Better? ;-)

Depending on how your slide navigation is set up, it might be enough to put a
button on the previous slide that triggers the browser control, waits until the
page is loaded and then goes to the next slide.

Thanks for the additional suggestions!

Experimented with making the browser ax control visible/invisible, but
without success. Defeated by my ignorance, I'm afraid.

Assuming the shape's name is WebBrowser1 (it will be by default) and that it's on
Slide 1:

With ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Shapes("WebBrowser1")
.Visible = Not .Visible
End With
