  1. Well, I've wasted enough time on this myself so I thought I would reach out for help. I'm sure the solution is simple; I'm just overlooking it. I want to search through a group of PowerPoint music slides and copy out certain song numbers and verses with their corresponding chorus. The verse number can vary (for example song number 500 verses 1 and 3). Verses may take up more than a single slide and choruses follow the verses and may take up more than a single slide. I have the search working... it finds the slide number... then finds the verses but I only want to copy the chorus for the selected verses. My code currently grabbing all the chorus slides, which I don't want. I can't seem to figure this part out. So, here is an example. Slide set: Verse 1 Verse 1 Chorus Chorus Verse 2 Verse 2 Chorus Chorus Verse 3 Verse 3 Chorus Chorus So, if I search for verses 1 and 3, I want this to be my results. (Verse 2 slides are their chorus are skipped) Verse 1 Verse 1 Chorus Chorus Verse 3 Verse 3 Chorus Chorus I'm looking for a strategy or algorithm for doing this type of search. I hope this makes sense.
  2. I have started to rewrite the PowerPoint UDF similar to the Word, Excel and Outlook UDF. The new UDF will not be compatible with the existing one.

  3. Wondering if you can help a teacher out. For the last few years of remote, hybrid, and in-person teaching I've been using an AutoHotKey script that creates an inking toolbar to be used during a PowerPoint presentation. (https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=79163) The annotation tools available through Ppt are woefully inadequate, and, on my machine at least, jump around all over the place - sometimes on the bottom, sometimes on the left, sometimes on the right. It's a scavenger hunt every single time. The inking tool is always available, and recent updates allowed for the addition of lots more colors, which I used for modeling phenomena with students. One tragic day I arrived to school to find that my district IT dep't took away access to AutoHotKey. No more tool bar. I've been trying to resurrect some programming skills from a past life. I'm working through various tutorials and help files, with the goal of recreating the toolbar in AutoIt. I'm really needing some help to move things along though. I've been going through your PowerPoint UDF and all of your functions seem to just relate to editing the slides. Can you point me in the direction of how to create a toolbar that accesses the annotation tools that are available during the slideshow itself?

  5. Hi all. I am trying to do 2 things but i cannot seem to get any traction on how to read/implement this idea. Premise: PowerPoint file in C\temp\presentation.pptx that contains on the first slide 2 entries as "<one>" and "<two>" which need to be replaced with "user1" and "user2", then a silent Outlook send mail containing the file with a predefined body and subject. I narrowed it down to COM objects as the Office does not like intrusive open AutoIt functions. I installed OLE/COM Object Viewer to understand how to create the commands but i am still stuck. So far i am trying to user water's code but i suck COM object i was originally trying to modify Dim $oPPT, $oPres $oPPT = ObjCreate("PowerPoint.Application") $oPPT.Visible = True $oPres = $oPPT.Presentations.Read Water's code below (0.1% modified) #include <File.au3> #include "PowerPoint.au3" #include <misc.au3> Global $sFile = "C:\temp\presentation.pptx" Global $sString2Search = "<username>", $sString2Replace = "Password", $iReplaceOnce = 1, $sFullLogFile = "C:\temp\pptxlog.txt" _ProcessPpt($sFile) Func _ProcessPpt($sFile) $oApp = _PPT_PowerPointApp() Local $bChange = False Local $oInterface = $oApp.Presentations Local $oPresentation = $oInterface.Open($sFile, False, False, False) If @error Then _FileWriteLog($sFullLogFile, "E Error " & @error & " opening File " & $sFile) Return SetError(1, 0, 0) EndIf ;it does not even open my file and from here not sure how to read the text and replace it EndFunc ;==>_ProcessPpt
  6. Hi, I'm getting this error while trying to initialize a com event handler for Office PowerPoint events. The PowerPoint file is displayed correctly, but no events are captured as the ObjEvent() fails : err.number is: -2147316576 err.windescription: Type mismatch. err.description is: err.source is: err.helpfile is: err.helpcontext is: 0 err.lastdllerror is: 0 err.scriptline is: 23 err.retcode is: 0 The sourcecode is: Local $oMyError = ObjEvent("AutoIt.Error","MyErrFunc") ; Initialize a COM error handler Func MyErrFunc($oError) ConsoleWrite("err.number is: " & @TAB & $oError.number & @CRLF & _ "err.windescription:" & @TAB & $oError.windescription & @CRLF & _ "err.description is: " & @TAB & $oError.description & @CRLF & _ "err.source is: " & @TAB & $oError.source & @CRLF & _ "err.helpfile is: " & @TAB & $oError.helpfile & @CRLF & _ "err.helpcontext is: " & @TAB & $oError.helpcontext & @CRLF & _ "err.lastdllerror is: " & @TAB & $oError.lastdllerror & @CRLF & _ "err.scriptline is: " & @TAB & $oError.scriptline & @CRLF & _ "err.retcode is: " & @TAB & $oError.retcode & @CRLF & @CRLF) EndFunc Local $AppPowerPoint = ObjCreate("PowerPoint.Application") If Not IsObj($AppPowerPoint) Then MsgBox(0, "Error", "$AppPowerPoint is not an Object.")

I'm using the latest autoit (v3.3.8.1, 32 bit) And I'm running Office PowerPoint 2013 32bit on a Windows 8 Pro 64 bit installation. Any idea why the ObjEvent() fails? (EDIT: changed to autoit code formatting)
  7. Hello all, I was very happy to found the ppt wrapper: But unfortunately it is not working for PPT VIEWER 2010 (free from Microsoft) http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=13 So I wrote this script to be able to run the ppt on a second screen automatically (It works with the normal PPT 2010 as well !): ENJOY!
