Hi John, thanks for your quick reply the OldPPT is a saved .pptx

The main file would be a *.PPTX, and the slides taken out would saved as *.PPTX

So they may have it open from D:\ or Z:\ drive, say, but after running this VBA and pulling out selected slides, it would then save the new file to C:\MyFolder with the same filename, or that popup where it navigates to C:\MyFolder and the person needs to name that file (a better option I guess).

Thank you. And thanks for all your past help. This weekend I'm adding these tools to the ribbon then visiting my nephew, but I'll be back Thursday with any reply after 4 pm BST. Thank you.
