Hello

Im looking for a way to automate the task of closing the current PowerPoint-presentation and fire the next in line. This is very useful if there is a seminar or conference with lots of different PowerPoint-presentations. Because VBA can remote-control PowerPoint through Excel, it seems likely that I can program a macro that does this for me. However, I see some obstacles:

- When I make a keyboard- shortcut for a VBA macro, it is only working when Excel is in the active window. I will need a way to fire the Macro when Powerpoint is in the active window with presentation-mode. Do you know if there is a way to have a macro-trigger for VBA in Excel that is always active regardless if Powerpoint is in presentation-mode? I have an X-keys panel that I can program to different tasks, ideally I would program one of the buttons on the panel to fire VBA-macros.

Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Morten
