Handle on activeshape and slide

[Hari Prasadh]

Hi,

How do I get a handle on active shape in PPT (am Coding in Excel)

I want to use something like

With oPPTApp1.ActivePresentation.Slides(1).ACTIVESHAPE

where oPPTApp1 is PPT application and I do have a particular shape in my PPT
which is active (similar to active sheet / cell in excel)

Also do we have a code/syntax like Activeslide (I tried
activepresentation.activeslide but got no intelli prompt)

Please guide me.

Thanks a lot,
Hari

Hari,

This works for me as is in PPT with the selected shape.

With ActiveWindow.Selection.ShapeRange
.Top = 10
.Left = 10
End With

You can just wrap it inside of the a with oPPTApp1.activepresentation
nest.
