General question from a beginner

[Michaels41]

John (or any one else that wants to comment),

I tried your suggestion but with no success. I have a question concerning slide numbers. In a slide show that contains 8 slides, the first slide (at the top of the left panel) is referred to as "Slide8" and the second as "Slide7" and so on. In other words, the slide show is constructed in reverse order building the last slide first and the next to last slide second, etc. However, if I use the following code to delete all objects on a slide:

With Application.ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Shapes
        For intShape8 = .Count To 1 Step -1
            .Item(intShape8).Delete
        Next
    End With

this refers to the slides in top to bottom order. In other words, Slide(1) refers to the first or top slide in the left panel, Slide(2) refers to the second slide and so on. So with that said, where exactly do I place this control (button) and exactly which slide do I reference in the code?

Thanks again,

Mike
