I am using PowerPoint 2003 (sad, I know) to create a training presentation. I have saved it as a .pps so that when it is opened it opens in Slide Show view.
My problem is when I upload the .pps file to our intranet (sharepoint) and I click on the file it opens as a regular presentation, not as a Slide Show.
Is there a macro I can embed in the presentation to run as soon as the file is opened and launch it as a Slide Show?
I have a macro recorded that launches the slide show, but I don't know how to make it start automatically when the file is opened. The intranet file will be opened as Read Only, I don't know if that makes a difference. I greatly appreciate any help!
This is what I have so far :
Sub SlideShow()
'
'
With ActivePresentation.SlideShowSettings
.ShowType = ppShowTypeSpeaker
.LoopUntilStopped = msoFalse
.ShowWithNarration = msoTrue
.ShowWithAnimation = msoTrue
.RangeType = ppShowAll
.AdvanceMode = ppSlideShowUseSlideTimings
.PointerColor.RGB = RGB(Red:=255, Green:=0, Blue:=0)
.Run
End With
End Sub
