Powerpoint Slideshow Does Not End When Saved?
Jan 16, 2009
I have a little problem with an application I am developing. My application is supposed to save a powerpoint slideshow, which I have finish coding. The code is as follows,
Dim dal As New CreateDAL
Dim bll As New createBLL
Dim searchQuery As String
[Code]......
However, upon click the button which calls these codes, the powerpoint slideshow that is saved does not end when it is in slideshow mode. For eg, there is 5 slides, after reaching the 5th slide, it returns back to the 1st slide and repeats over and over again. I'll have to press the ESC key to end the slide show. Is there anyway to prevent this? Perhaps I'm missing a statement to make the ending slide the last side?

I have written a VB.net 2010 Powerpoint addin that needs to be able to advance the slide via a button on it's main form when running the presentation. The functionality I require is exactly as if you press the space bar while focus is on the slide show window.
I have tried-PowerPointApp.ActivePresentation.SlideShowWindow.View.Next
But this does not work in excatly the same way, namely when working with several animation sequences on the same slide.I am looking into using the API - FindWindow & SendMessage but I do not fully understand the steps to get this to work, or even if it can. Or is there another way?
I am using Visual Studio 2010 RC with Powerpoint 2010 Developer Beta.

how to set a powerpoint presentation as the powerpoint.application.activepresentation? In the program below, when the form is loading, it will open 2 powerpoint files (Test1.ppt and Test2.ppt). After Test2.ppt is opened, it will be the activepresentation because it is opened last.What I am trying to do is when I press button1, it will set Test1.ppt as activepresentation so that when I press button4, it will show me "C:Test1.ppt".The same also goes to button2 making Test2.ppt as activepresentation..But what I get is, no matter how many times i press button1, Test2.ppt is always the activepresentation.[code]

I'm trying to copy a Range from Excel and Paste the information in powerpoint in either the HTML or the default format, however, I am having some difficulties. I am able to get the code to work for pasting the Range as an OLE Object but nothing else. The problem with doing this is that having the embedded excel documents in the powerpoint makes the file extremely large and unstable. I just need to be able to paste the information without the embedded information where it is editable (so, not as a bitmap or picture).
With ppt2Slide
Sheets(index2).Activate
Range("CP12:CT" & RangeIndex2).Copy

I have a form that i call like so:
call frmSlideShow.showWhat("1,4,8,9,11,22")
Each of the numbers represents a different image slide (slide1.png, slide4.png, etc..). The problem i am having is trying to create a "previous" and "next" button to flip through them all. Trying to figure out what number the user is on and going from there and seeing what numbers are still left from the list above that was sent, etc.
here is the code..
Public Sub showWhat(ByVal theNumbers As String)
Dim theNums As String() = theNumbers.Split(New Char() {","c})
Dim theCurNum As String

I am trying to build a slideshow app that will display 6 pictures at a time from a specified folder. I put 6 pictureboxes in a TableLayoutPanel and have a timer control call the Ahead1 subroutine to load a new picture into the last box after all of the other pictures "move up one box".The problem is that every the timer calls the Ahead1, the program uses about 30MB of RAM and the program eventually ends with an OutOfMemory Error. (Choosing the Picture Folder - only called once)
Private Sub ChooseDirectoryToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ChooseDirectoryToolStripMenuItem.Click
FolderBrowserDialog1.ShowDialog()

I have developed a small application to call several powerpoint presentations. The user will enter the powerpoint number and the powerpoint will be shown in Viewshow form. However this is not the case. The powerpoints are showing in the normal powerpoint form where the users can edit the texts in the presentation even though the powerpoint presentation are saved as viewshow. Please help with the code to display powerpoint in VIEWSHOW form:(;(If this is displayed in a form is fine, part my working code is as shown below;
Imports PowerPoint = Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint
Imports Office = Microsoft.Office.Core
Imports Graph = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Graph

How do I check to see if a user has Powerpoint 2007 or 2010 in the autorun for a CD, and download a reader if he does not? Can this be done in a VB script, or do I need to write a program to do this. My initial attempts tried using Fileinfo, but VB script does not recognise this class. This needs to be run on any user computer.

I am a graphic designer and not even close to being a programmer. I have to make a DVD that has a powerpoint file on it. What I would like is that when the user puts the DVD in the drive, it will automatically open up a launch window. The launch window will contain a background image and the icon to launch the powerpoint file will be the clients logo.

I'm currently working with PowerPoint in VB.NET and having a bit of trouble getting a slide to have an individual background. Using the SlideMaster method changes all slide in the presentation and I want only one to be affected
PS Using the Background.Fill.UserPicture method doesn't seem to be working, but I'm not sure why...

MS PowerPoint, on the left side, there is a slide bar showing slides/pages available, is it that a slides pane? And how can I do that, let say if I want to create a new page/slide, how can I create a new blank slide? Also the side bar will display the pages/slides but is in smaller view...

I'm putting the finishing touches to a fullscreen Winforms Application in VB (.net 3.5, VS2008). This is Q2 for today, as I seem to be coming up with all these little glitches I can't figure out!!I have a webcontrol, which I use to show a PowerPoint presentation - by using webctl.navigate("c:MyPresentation.ppt").This works perfectly, and my presentation shows exactly as desired.However, sometimes, when I close my application, the Powerpnt.exe process is left running.Is there any way of programatically forcing this to close if it has been left open, or am I not disposing of something I should (I can't find anything along these lines when running powerpoint through a web control)?

I tried applying an animation to an object in powerpoint through VB.NET. I'm only a beginner and have tried my best to figure it out with something like the following code which is two objects using one as the trigger. I managed to get it working in pptVBA but just can't get it to work in .NET. I keep getting an error COMException was unhandled.
Imports PowerPoint = Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint
Dim intereffect as powerpoint.effect
Dim oShape/sPic as powerpoint.shape
With oApp.ActivePresentation.Slides(1).TimeLine.InteractiveSequences.Add(1)

I am in the process of writing a program that takes a .xls file of raw data, runs some calculations on the data, and then creates appropriate tables and charts. It then copies the charts into a PowerPoint presentation, formats each slide correctly with all the necessary information and saves the presentation with a new file name. That part alone works fine and takes about 12 seconds for the whole process (its roughly a 12 slide presentation).

I want to embed a PowerPoint presentation with narration, timings and the presentation PASSWORD in my application so that it will automatically start the Pesentation and enter the password, when a button on the form is clicked. I want to do this so that the PowerPoint presentation can only be viewed from within the application, where the password is embedded in code, and cannot be run by just finding the PowerPoint presentation file and clicking on it to run it.
I do not intend for the user to be given the password. I would imagine that i could use process.start to run the presentation, which can be put on the target computer at the time of instal, but I don't know how to handle the password with code on the button.

In PowerPoint (2007 at least, but probably others), it refuses to spell check "some" text in some shapes.
I thought it was the type of shape, so changed them, this didn't fix it. So I did some experiments moving what I called "infected" text into a few boxes and saw that it was somehow attached to the text.
Taking a very simple file with known infected and uninfected sections I converted the .pptx to a .zip and opened .pptslidesslide1.xml In here text which won't spell check is inclosed with:
<a:rPr noProof="1" Text which is spelt ok, or had "ignore" pressed in inclosed with:
<a:rPr dirty="0" smtClean="0" ...
And missspelled text, that was found with:
<a:rPr dirty="0" smtClean="0" err="1" ...
I found and deleted all the noProof="1"s in the file, returned it to the countainer and opened the presentation. and everything spell check as I would expect it should, all errors in all boxes were found, without damaging the file. After saving it, I reopened the silde1.xml and found dirty="0" smtClean="0" or dirty="0" smtClean="0" err="1" in the correct places.
Now the question is, how do I use this new found knowledge to fix a file, without manualy exstracting all the slide#.xml files, opening them in a text editor and using "Replace" to fix them? That process of exstraction could be automated, but if it is possible to do from VBA within PowerPoint it would be easier.

how to use access to automate the process of opening the power point from the VBA code. So what it does is if the user clicks on the open button, the power point will open...The path and file of the power point have been set correctly.Here is the code for the button click, private sub:
Private Sub cmdAutomatePowerPoint_Click()
Dim strFileName As String
strFileName = "C:PracticeAccessVBA_Programming5Ws.ppt"
[code]....
But whenever I click on the button I got the error message, saying power point could not open the file.
