Address buttons from VBA

[Lars Kjærsgaard]

Hi,

Is it possible to address manually placed objects (buttons) in a
Presentation from VBA?

My need is to grab an event eg. like "on_Mouseover()" or "on_clicked()", is
this possible in VBA/PP?

If they are controls like those from Control Toolbox, then you can handle
their events using "WithEvents" variables. If they are regular PowerPoint
shapes (rectangle, line, etc.), then you would need to point their mouse
click Action Settings to your macro.

Thank you very much.

Do you know how to grab when the "SlideShowWindow" is ended/terminated eg.
by using the "Esc" key.

There is this SlideShowEnd event of PowerPoint application that gets fired
when slide show ends. You can use that to handle slide show termination.
