Hello,

I am working with an excel document with about 100 marlett checkboxes, aka 100 topics. The back end of this process works with Word macros to deliver a write up to a customer based on the topics they select.

I would also like on the front end to develop a macro in excel, to work with a PPT library. See image below:

In this example I have a PPT with slides already created that correspond to the 10 options. I want to do one of two things:


Copy that master slide deck, and erase the slides not selected.
Open the master slide deck, copy the two options (Similar Web and Uber Suggest) into a new PPT presentation.


I know I can reference slide locations using integers, but can I somehow name slides? This becomes quite an administrative task once you talk about 100 different options.
