Hi,
I am doing a project at work which means that I have to use VBA in PowerPoint. I have never used VBA before apart from recording macros in Excel, so I really have no idea what I am doing.
With help of YouTube and other websites I have managed to get some basic aspects working within my slides. However, I have no idea how to make some of my variables global so that I can link some of my values to other pages.
I would really appreciate some help if there is someone skilled to do so as all of the information on the internet has just confused me and isn't very clear. Especially as it is now talking about modules (whatever one of those is) to make things global.
Many Thanks
VP
