Presentation.TemplateName property (PowerPoint)

  • Article

Returns the name of the first design/master associated with the specified presentation. Read-only.

Syntax

expression. TemplateName

expression A variable that represents a Presentation object.

Return value

String

Remarks

For pre-Office XML formats e.g. pot/ppt, the returned string previously returned the name of the template on which the presentation was created from, including the MS-DOS file name extension (for file types that are registered) but didn't include the full path. In the new XML formats e.g. potx/pptx, it now returns the name of the first design/master.

Example

The following example applies the design template Professional.potx to the presentation Pres1.pptx if it is not already applied to it.

With Presentations("Pres1.pptx")
    If .TemplateName <> "Professional" Then
        .ApplyTemplate "c:\program files\microsoft office" & _
            "\templates\presentation designs\Professional.potx"
    End If
End With
