PowerPoint 2007 SlideShowWindow.Activate() problems

G

Gene Golovchinsky

I am porting my app from PPT 2003 to PPT 2007, and have encountered strange
behavior with the SlideShowWindow.Activate() method. Even for a single-slide,
no graphics presentation, the system takes about 20 seconds to load the
image. It takes the same 20 seconds to load a graphics-heavy multi-slide
presentation. This code is unchanged from the 2003 version, which did not
exhibit these problems.

Any insights into this are greately appreciated!

Thanks,

Gene

What image? Or do you mean that it takes 20 seconds for PPT to display the
slide?

You don't mention whether the code is running as a PPT add-in, .NET app, VB6 app
or something else entirely, or post any relevant code.

Fill in some of the gaps and with luck, someone may be able to help.
