Stop command button from showing up on a print out?

[plpl78]

Hello everyone,

I have a 4 slide Powerpoint set up. I added a command button so that users could print the entier Powerpoint rather than having to view it online.

I have it working the only problem is when i click on the command button, it prints all 4 slides but it also shows the command button on the 1st slide.

Is there anyway to set it up so that when they click the button it just prints the 4 slides and not the button?

Here is the VBA code i'm using right now.

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

ActivePresentation.PrintOptions.RangeType = ppPrintAll
ActivePresentation.PrintOut

End Sub

Have you checked the properties of the button? Right click, Format, Properties, unchecked the "Print" box?

I have not used one in PowerPoint, however, in all the other Microsoft programs I have used, this works.

Hope that helps....

For an ActiveX CommandButton goto the object's properties (from the Developer tab)-->PrintObject-->False.
