Need VB for Office Assistant

[DJ]

I have created a help system for my Excel files using the Office Assistant
and now I would like to do the same for PowerPoint. Does anyone know how
this can be done? I can show you the code I am using for Excel if that would
help. In Excel the help text is stored in a hidden sheet. I'm not sure
where it would go for PowerPoint. Another ppt maybe. I just know I need to
create a help system for my users and so far I like using the Assistant.

All suggestions welcome,

DJ

Hi Steve. Thanks for taking the time to reply to my post.

Where did you store your text when you put words in the Assistant's mouth?
Using a text file sounds okay, but they don't print very nicely and I need
the words to look good on paper too. How about a Word document? Could I
store it in a .doc? In my doc I would contain a table with 3 columns. The
first column is for the step number. The second column is the heading like
"Printing". And the third column is the text, the actual step-by-step
directions. I'll give the .doc the same name as the ppt. Do you think that
will work?

If so, can you give me some simple code to help me get started?

I'd really appreciate it!
