Problem with Macros in Powerpoint 2003

C

Christopher Bogart

Here's my goal:

I'm trying to create a slide in powerpoint that will have 2 separate
..wav files. I need one keyboard key to play one sound and the another
with another key.

I've downloaded the OfficeOne Shortcut Manager for PowerPoint
(http://officeone.mvps.org/ppsctmgr/ppsctmgr_download.html)

I create a blank slide. Insert the .wav file. Start the recording of the
macro, play the sound, then stop the recording. When I go to
Tools>Macros>Macros and try to run the macro I just created, it does
nothing.

I tried creating a shortcut key (ctrl+F8) under Tools>Customize shortcuts
When I go to Slide show>View show and press the shortcut key I get this
error.

Run-time error '-2147188160 (80048240)':

Application (unknown member): Invalid request. There is no currently
active document window.

Microsoft (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/285472) says to add code to
fix the problem. I don't know VB very well. Is there another way I can
accomplish what I want or is this a simple fix?

Many thanks in advance.
