VBA Microsoft Programming Accessing Variables across slides

Question

Hello all, can you help?

I am trying to access a variable from slide 2 in a later slide

in the slide 2 code I have declared the variable as public

Public UserName As String

then I have set the value of this inside my button click function

Public Sub SaveName_Click()
    UserName = TextBox1.Value
End Sub

I am trying to access the variable on a later slide by using

Slide2.UserName

However I am having no luck, can anyone advise me on where I am going wrong?

Thank you in advance
