Yes I made it up, it works perfectly when you replace "document" by
"presentations"
Thanks!!!

The PowerPoint object model doesn't have a Documents object. Did
you just make it up? Try
Set Potato = Brocoli.Presentations.Open(filename:=carot)

I want to open a power point file with the following code but
it's always
giving me an error on the last line. Somebody knows?
Sub openppt()
Dim Brocoli As Object
Dim Potato As Object
Dim carot As String
carot = "C:\random folder\open me.ppt"
Set Brocoli = CreateObject("powerpoint.Application")
Brocoli.Visible = True
Set Potato = Brocoli.documents.Open(Filename:=carot)
End Sub
