inter-presentation communication

hi

If you've launched a hyperlinked presentation is there
any way to call a function or retrieve the value of a
variable from the presentation that launched it.

You can do in the following manner:
1. Create a function in the parent presentation that returns the value of
the variable.
Function GetVarValue()
GetVarValue=<VariableName>
End Function

2. Invoke that function from the hyperlinked presentation and it will return
the value.
MsgBox Application.Run("C:\Path\presentation1.ppt!module1.GetVarValue")
