Capture Powerpoint Annotations

P

Help? I posted this query previously, back in November,
and got zero replies. C'mon, SOMEbody... and MVP or a MS
dev, has GOT to know how to do this?? Please???

Here's the question:
During a slide show, one can mark up a powerpoint 2003
slide using "ink" annotations.

When I programatically export a Powerpoint 2003 slide
(to, let's say, PNG format), during the show (using ...
Slides(x).Export), the slide is exported without those
annotations.... But I really WANT those annotations.

I know that if I exit from the show, Powerpoint asks "do
you want to save your ink" (or something similar)? If
you answer yes, the annotations are saved as drawing
objects in the foreground of the slide. If you then
export THIS slide, it has the annotations included.

Can anybody offer any help/advice as to how I might grab
those annotations without having to stop the show??
