Handle on active shape and slide
 

Hi,

How do I get a handle on active shape in PPT (am Coding in Excel)

I want to use something like

With oPPTApp1.ActivePresentation.Slides(1).ACTIVESHAPE

where oPPTApp1 is PPT application and I do have a particular shape in my PPT
which is active (similar to active sheet / cell in excel)

Also do we have a code/syntax like Activeslide (I tried
activepresentation.activeslide but got no intelli prompt)

Please guide me.

Thanks a lot,

Hari -

The PowerPoint object model requires you to access an object something like

oPPTApp1.ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Selection.Sh aperange

Use the PowerPoint macro recorder to decode the required syntax.
