Powerpoint slide name

[shep6]

Hi

This is probably dead easy, but in powerpoint vba how do I find out the name of the current slide?

Is there not something similar to Excel's acitvesheet.name property?

I've tried ActivePresentation.Slides.Name, but this requires the slide index, I probably need determine the slide index, but what do I use to do this ?

thanks in advance

Hi,
depending on PP state (slideshow, design mode), in the simplest case:

' running slideshow
MsgBox Application.SlideShowWindows(1).View.Slide.Name

or

' design (document) window:
With ActiveWindow
    .Panes(2).Activate
    MsgBox .View.Slide.Name
End With

combo
