Auto Open

Hello

In Excel you can have a macro that runs automatically when you open the workbook. Can you have a macro that run automatically when a presentation opens?

Thanks in advance

James,
The two auto execute VBA procs in PPT are Auto_Open & Auto_Close.
However, quite unlike Word & Excel, these execute automatically only within
an add-in. Auto_open- when you load it and Auto_close - when you unload the
add-in

If you are using PowerPoint 2000 or later you can try my free AutoEvents
Addin
The add-in is designed to execute the certain routines automatically if
present in the presentation. You can download and learn more about it from
