Run a macro when a presentation is saved

[ontologist]

Does anyone know whether it is possible to run a macro when a presentation is
saved (or, even better, every time the bultin or custom document properties
are changed)? I wrote a macro to add document control attributes from the
builtin and custom document properties fields to the headers and footers.
I'f like to run this every time the presentation is saved (or properties are
changed). Otherwise, I need to rely on my users to remember to hit a toolbar
button every time they change the properties.

I'm using this macro to comply with FDA document control requirements. I'm
using PowerPoint 2002. Thanks!

Thank you both for your speedy replies. Bill, that's one heck of a web site
you pointed me at - loads of great stuff! And Steve, thanks for the heads up
about the close event - I'll try it out and see what happens. If I have
trouble, I'll try to catch it on the open event, too, so I get them coming
and going ;=)

I'll post back with my results, but it will probably take a few days - I
think my own machine just got some sort of msmsgs.exe virus (file flagged as
changed) on my own machine, so I'll need to track that down first.

Thanks again for your expert help and recommendations!
