Hello,

I was wondering if it is possible to use a vba code that will open a UserForm based on the current open slide in Normal/Edit View?

I tried the code below, but I'm getting an error message (Object variable or With block variable not set.
Code:
Sub UserForm()
Dim ActiveSlide As Slide
If ActiveSlide = ActivePresentation.Slides(1) Then
    frmChecklist.Show vbModeless
End If
End Sub

What I need to do is:
  • If Slide 0 is the current active presentation slide, then open userform1.
  • If Slide 1 is the current active presentation slide, then open userform1 and userform2.
  • etc.

Thank you

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
This is an excel forum but as help you could use something like this:

Code:
Dim sld As Slide

Set sld = ActiveWindow.View.Slide

Select Case sld.Name
    Case ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Name
        UserForm1.Show vbModeless
    Case ActivePresentation.Slides(2).Name
        MsgBox "Slide 2"
End Select

Hello,

Thank you. I understand that this is an Excel forum, but I really needed the help and was not sure where else to go to get some help quickly.
Would you happen to know if there is a way to get this work that when a user goes to the slide, the UserForm will automatically open instead of clicking on the macro to run if per slide?

Thank you
