Slides.FindBySlideID Method
PowerPoint Developer Reference |
Returns a Slide object that represents the slide with the specified slide ID number. Each slide is automatically assigned a unique slide ID number when it is created. Use the SlideID property to return a slide's ID number.
Syntax
expression.FindBySlideID(SlideID)
expression A variable that represents a Slides object.
Parameters
Name | Required/Optional | Data Type | Description |
---|---|---|---|
SlideID | Required | Long | Specifies the ID number of the slide you want to return. Microsoft Office PowerPoint assigns this number when the slide is created. |
Return Value
Slide
Remarks
Unlike the SlideIndex property, the SlideID property of a Slide object won't change when you add slides to the presentation or rearrange the slides in the presentation. Therefore, using the FindBySlideID method with the slide ID number can be a more reliable way to return a specific Slide object from a Slides collection than using the Item method with the slide's index number.
Example
This example demonstrates how to retrieve the unique ID number for a Slide object and then use this number to return that Slide object from the Slides collection.
