Variable initialisation in Powerpoint

[Simon Caiger]

Hi All,

This is the first time I have used VBA in Powerpoint so sorry if it is a silly question.

I need to set the initial state of the values displayed in some labels etc. on a slide when it is first shown.

In VB, I would do this in Form_Load or Form_Activate.

Is there a similar event that I can use in Powerpoint?

Thanks in advance

OK, I've figured it out.

As you probably all know, but I didn't, you just create your own Form_Load procedure.

What was throwing me was that there is "Form" object and it's associated list of procedures in the object and procedure combo boxes like you get in VB.
