This work like a charm. I only wish Powerpoint would let us record macros so beginners like me could record and learn like I do in Excel. Once the code ran I wanted to distribute the shapes vertically and tried recording that in Excel and replicating in Powerpoint. It does distribute but throws up an error and the distribution is haywire. This is what I tried:

 
With ppS1.Shapes.Range(Array("Group 40", "Group 41", "Group 42", "Group 43"))    
.Distribute msoDistributeVertically, msoFalse
 End With
Any idea where I'm going wrong?


Could you also point me towards basic VBA codes for powerpoint, since I can't just record a macro and figure. Things like Selecting shapes, Editing height and width of shapes etc?

Thanks a ton!
