    VBA to add a copyright to the bottom of first slide

    Hello experts,
    Does anyone know how to use VBA to add a sentence to the bottom of the very first slide? I am trying to add a copyright statement on just the first slide. I would like the statement to go to a specific area on the bottom of the slide if possible. If that is not possible, I can live with that and will adjust position manually. The font style should be Calibri, size =11 and make text italicized.

    Here is an image of my first slide and the box on the bottom is where i would like the copyright statement to go.

    Hope someone has the answer to this!! THANK YOU!

    Why are you trying to do with with VBA? This sort of thing would ordinarily be done once on a template that can then be used for the creation of multiple presentations.

    Yes, you have a good point. The template I have does have the copyright statement so I added it. But when I added the copyright to the template and then I insertd a new intro slide, it still does not have the copyright statement. I then checked the template to be sure the copyright is on the intro page in SlideMaster and it is.....so if I could make the copyright statement stay on the Intro page every time I insert a new intro slide that would work!
    any thoughts? thank you

    That's because you add slides to a template, not vice-versa.
