Automation of PowerPoint 2003

[Mike M.]

I have a C++ program that automates PowerPoint 2002. Has any one
experienced any differences in the object model for PowerPoint 2003?

TIA

Uhh, I am not experiencing any yet. Our purchasing person said he is having
trouble getting PPT 2002 from his normal sources and wanted to know if 2003
would be o.k. I was just putting out some feelers to see if anybody had
noticed any differences before I spend some money and time to test 2003. I
know I will eventually have to do that but now is not a good time. Mostly I
was wondering if the object model (properties, methods, etc.) had changed
which would neccesitate changes to my application.

Thanks.

Nope. Nothing has changed. Some new events have been added mainly for SPSS
support.
Some minor changes in the CommandBars object. Nothing major to break any
existing application. If you want to test run anything on PPT 2003. Let me
know. I would be glad to help.
