I need to go through each shape of a smart-art in PowerPoint 2007. When shape.Type=msoSmartArt then I could simply go through the shapes in shape.GroupItems. However, when shape.Type == msoPlaceholder && shape.PlaceholderFormat.ContainedType==msoSmartArt then shape.GroupItems is empty. How can I access the smart-art shapes in such a cas...
I'll give an example with a SmartArt Shape, but it could be asked about other shapes too. When I go over Slide.Shapes, one of the Shapes has: Shape.Type=msoPlaceholder and Shape.PlaceholderFormat.ContainedType=msoSmartArt Is there a way to get to the actual SmartArt Shape contained in the placeholder? Thanks, Arie ...
Hi, I know PowerPoint supports macros But is there a way I can insert data from a datasource into a placeholder or something? I've got a routine where I collect data from a database and store it in the registry. This data is then inserted into several Word templates. And this is working. But I can't find any bookmark support in PowerPoi...
I'm trying to create a number of AutoShapes in code (don't ask why...hehehe). I am using the parameters supplied by Open XML to re-create them and some are working okay, like creating a heart. In some cases, I can create the shape, but it doesn't fill properly. Here's the XML from DrawingML for a FoldedCorner shape: <foldedCorner> ...

Also, there are no autostart event handler, but I found a way of doing it by editing the XML data. This now works, I've got a custom event handler that is run as expected. Now, I tried to solve the no bookmark ...
Hi, so I've found that PowerPoint 2007 does indeed support event handlers on the Application level. For example Application.NewPresentation or even Application.AfterNewPresentation It's described here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff745073.aspx But the real question is, how do I use these? Where do I use them? To tell you my ...

I'm trying to determine how to black/unblack a Powerpoint presentation using VBA. I modified a VBA Macro that I found online (http://my.safaribooksonline.com/9780470634004/670?bookview=search -- "Mastering VBA for Microsoft Office 2010; page 670") Sub Test1() With ActivePresentation.SlideShowWindow.View .State = ppSlideShow...
I'm trying to check a presentation for the fonts that exist in it. This can be done with ActivePresentation.Fonts. I also want to check if the font is normal, bold and/or italic. Bold and Italic are easy, but Normal is not. For example, say I have two text boxes, one of them has "Hello World" in Arial Italic and another the same in Arial...
