using visual basic in powerpoint

[san5010now]

Every time I make a powerpoint presentation with any
visual basic object and code it runs fine till I close the
program and the next time I start it it does not work, the
code is entered properly, when I double click on the
textbox or command button the correct code appears but I
does not execute it.HELP!!!!!!!!!!

P.S.:It also says macros disabled, do I need to enable
them if so how do I do it?

Yes, you need to enable macros. The details depend on the version of
PowerPoint you are using. First you want to set your macro security to
medium or low. Go to the Tools Menu, choose Macros, and choose Security.
If you set security to medium, you will have to choose to Enable macros
every time you open a presentation that uses visual basic objects (it
will ask you when you open it).
