Automate PowerPoint from Access

[Dale Fye]

I found some code that advises how to view a PPT briefing from within Access
on the MSDN web site, pretty cool.

I've got a series of briefings that contain basically the same slides, but
in different orders. Unfortunately, I have not figured out how to "Name"
each slide so that I can refer to it by a name rather than by the slide
number. Is there a way to do this?

Example 8.7 on my site discusses using VBA for naming shapes and slides:

Just click on "Examples by Chapter" and "Chapter 8."

Thanks, David.

I like what I have seen so far. Will browse a bit more and then may have to
go out and purchase this one.
