Slide Show
I am having trouble making a simple slide show using a timer. I set my interal at a second and set enabled as false till i hit the command. I saved my pictures under a common name (Bpic in JPEG) on my E drive. I think my code to call the pictures is incorect. Any help would be very appreciated. So far my code is this:
Dim counter As Integer

Private Sub Command1_Click()

Timer1.Enabled = True

End Sub

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()

Picture1.Picture = LoadPicture("e:\" & bpic & ".jpg")

counter = counter = 1

End Sub

Getting To The Next Slide In PowerPoint
I have seen several instances of code that allows you to advance to the next slide in PowerPoint, but all of these instances require that you be in Slide Show mode. I am looking for a way to advance to the next slide while outside of the slide show so I can then have visual basic delete and modify objects on the next page, which doesn't work if you are viewing the slide show. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Slide Show
I was wondering if there is a way to display multiple pictures in a single form. I have 24 pictures that I would like the user to be able to scroll through using the arrow keys on the handheld. I want to try and minimize the amount of work I have to do. Does anyone have an idea on how to do this without placing 24 pictureboxes on the form and changing the focus. Example code would be appreciated since I am very new to VB and eMbedded VB.

Add A Slide Module To The VBE With VBA
I would like to be able to programmatically create a PowerPoint Slide object in the Visual Basic Environment. Since this code will need to reside within or be activated by the slide, I would like to know how to programmatically add a Slide Module to the Visual Basic Editor. I already know how to add code to an already existing Slide Module from a remote application, but not how to add the actual Module. I thought that by adding a new slide the corresponding code module would be created. Below is the code I use to add code from another application. Trying to use the Add method ends with no results; no error or Slide Code page.

Code:
objPPTApp.VBE.VBProjects("PPTWeb").VBComponents(1).CodeModule.InsertLines(1, strCode)

Highlight Slide
I have a VB project that opens PowerPoint presentations on a dual-monitor system. On the left side (the VB application) is a screen that looks like powerpoint slide sorter mode. When a slide is clicked on the VB monitor, it's highlighted (with a black rectangle around it) and that slide is maximized on the other screen in slide show mode. When Page up and Page down are pressed on the keyboard the next/previous slide are shown on the slide show monitor. I need the slide to be highlighted that is up on the slide show monitor when page up and down are pressed. Does anybody know how I could do this (if this makes any sense to anybody!)? Thanks in advance.

Slide Selection/Deselection - PPT
I gotta say, this site has been the most prompt and helpful of any site I have sent VB problems too. Im trying to do alot having never used Visual Basic before, thanks for all the help.

My problem this time is an error people may know about: "To Select a Shape, Its View Must Be Active." In this program, I create a new slide and add a series of charts/ranges to it. I have one example here. Somehow, despite adding a new slide, it does not become the active slide, but rather the slide highlighted when the macro was started remains the active slide (It is possible that both are selected). Is there a way to deselect/select slides that will give an "active view"? Thanks in advance!

Listbox On Slide Won't Populate (VBA In PPT)
I have a listbox on my slide and it's not populating. I know I'm supposed to use the .AddItem to put the values into it, but it doesn't populate on my slide unless I go into the code and press F5. And then if I save and close my presentation, when I reopen it, it is not populated again. How can I have it already populated when the slide appears?

Private Sub ListBox1_Initialize()
With ListBox1
.AddItem "Nemo"
.AddItem "Dory"
.AddItem "Marlin"
.AddItem "Bruce"
.AddItem "Crush"
End With
End Sub

THANK YOU in advance for any assistance.

Slide Show Or Animation
I am going to integrate a slide show or animation type demonstration in a program that i'm making. The demonstration doesn't have to be smooth animations because it's more of a slide show than a smooth animation.

What is the best way to present this? The following is a list that i've thought up. Please choose the best one or give me your idea for the best way in terms of system resources and whether it's hard to do.

Imagebox control and just update with pics
use mediaplayer control to play AVI

Thanks in advance

VBA - Change Images On A PPT Slide
Okay here's my challenge:

Slide 1: Contains 3 buttons and an image. When the user clicks on a button, i want the original image to be replaced by a different image. This PPT will be sent to other users, and I can't rely on them to place images locally with a the same static file path.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Powerpoint Hide Slide
I'm trying to activate/deactive the "Hide Slide" option from within a Powerpoint2000 presentation using an ActiveX checkbox. Just some context: This is a flashcard program that displays all slides in a random order. The program must not show the flashcards that users already know, which they indicate by clicking the checkbox.

I have...

Sub CheckBox1_Click()
' If CheckBox checked then set Hide Slide option Active.
If (CheckBox1.Value = Checked) Then
ActivePresentation.Slides(2).SlideShowTransition.Hidden = msoTrue
ElseIf (CheckBox1.Value = Unchecked) Then
ActivePresentation.Slides(2).SlideShowTransition.Hidden = msoFalse
End If
End Sub

Any thoughts?

Powerpoint Slide Navigation Using Combo Box?
I am not a programmer so I was wondering if there is anyway to code a combo box in Powerpoint so when you select an option in the drop down, it goes to different slides throughout the presentation based on your selection. If there is, does anyone have any sample code for this to get me started?

Or if you know of a site that would point me in the right direction, that would work too. Thanks!

Image To EXISTING Powerpoint Slide
this should be simple and i apologize if i am missing something stupid but i can not get this to work but every example i have looked at is either coded wrong giving me errors or deals with adding a slide then putting an image file on the slide

Dim oPP As PowerPoint.ApplicationClass
Dim oPresSet As PowerPoint.Presentations
Dim oPres As PowerPoint.PresentationClass

oPP = CreateObject("PowerPoint.Application")
oPP.Visible = True
oPresSet = oPP.Presentations
If firstpass = True Then
oPres = oPresSet.Open("c:plantest.ppt", , , True)
Else
oPres = oPresSet.Open("c:plan beta.ppt", , , True)
End If

oPP.ActiveWindow.View.GotoSlide(Index:=layoutvalue(x, 1))
Dim oSlide As PowerPoint.Slide

*** i thought one of the next lines would declare the oslide var to a slide but it is not working*****

'oSlide = opresset.ActivePresentation.Slides(layoutvalue(x, 1))
'oSlide = opresset.slides(1)

**** because i want to use this line to put the image to the slide****

oSlide.Shapes.AddPicture(spic, False, True, 150, 150, 500, 350)

if anyone can point me in the right direction or show me some example code it would be greatly appreciated.. again i apologize if i am doing something stupid.

THANKS!!!
