Powerpoint VBA Forum

[Andibevan]

I was wondering - why do all of the other core MS Office applications get
there own MS Usenet forum relating to programming within each application,
whereas Powerpoint does not.

I realise that programming in Powerpoint is not as common as the other
applications, but none-the-less I would have imagined that there would be
enough people interested to get it going?

Any thoughts....

It's been offered several times (a seperate forum) but as the numbers are
small pretty much everyone in this forum wanted to keep it here so everyone
could share the information and participate, even if they don't do much with
VBA.

Seems like a sensible argument to me. Obviously the counter argument is
that by seperating the vba from powerpoint it is easier to direct questions
to a specific audience I generally have VBA specific questions (any pointers
on any Powerpoint VBA sites you could recommend? - A starter for 10 would be
great)

Just in case it doesn't come across right - I do agree with you both that it
is more sensible to keep them together...

King Regards

I would start with the Programming PowerPoint section of the PPT FAQ:

http://www.rdpslides.com/pptfaq/#PROGRAMMING_POWERPOINT

It probably points to all the other good sites.
