I have never used VBA in PowerPoint. I am totally lost.

I can add a control (cmd button) to a slide, and then execute simple vba (ex. msgobx "hello world").

But I cannot find any of the events found in Access (example: on open, load, close, etc).

A few web searches tell me that I must first declare some object first, and then these events will be available, but I am totally lost..

I just need to add simple vba (a msgbox) that will execute when the ppt (or pps) opens (hopefully in either design or slide show view).

Where? How?

Thanks.
