How to save a *.ppt file without the VBA-Macros

Is it possible to save a .PPT file without the VBA-Code?

I know your not meaning File > Save :D

Do you mean use vb to automate the process?

OK, I should have said ..using VBA, but since this is the VBA-Section, I thought..........

I know I can just copy all slides onto a new (empty )*.ppt, but isn'T an option to SaveAS without the VBA-Code that is coming with the opiginal .ppt?

So your looking for some VBA code to export your slides to a fresh
non-macro containing ppt file?

What about just placing a password on the VBA and locking it
from viewing?

'cause the VBA code is meant to run only once on the file.
The password just prevent from copieng my code, not mistakenly using it (again).

How about adding some code to determine if its been "processed"
or not? If its been processes then the code wont run.

Another more painful way may be to export the slides to a
new .ppt file, but the user could still doa save as while in the
original macro containing ppt file and bypass this.

Yeah, I think I'll have to go the painfull way. (Some parts don't copy reall easy, like specials from the MasterSlide).
Thanks anyway

Adding code to check if the macro has already een run is not an
option? Sounds easier then the alternative.
