Hyperlink - Create New Document

[Aurora I]

Hi all,
I am that one writing PowerPoint to XML converter. Now I need to parse the
hyperlink.
The question is how do I know when the hyperlink is dedicated to create a
new document?
A snippet VBA code would be great.

Thank you,
Aurora I.

So far as I know, never.

Can you give an example of how such a thing can be created?

Here is the way a hyperlink creates a new document in PowerPoint 2003.
1. Select a placeholder.
2. "Insert Hyperlink" for main menu.
3. Link to: "Create New Document" - on the left side , beside "Existing File
or Web Page" , "Place in this Document" and "E-mail Address".
Thanks you,

Ah, I see. You can get the code to *produce* a link like this by recording a
macro while you create it manually. It uses the .CreateNewDocument method, but
there doesn't seem to be any companion Property that you can examine to
determine if this link is supposed to create a new file.

I thought that perhaps you might be able to examine the html/script for the
needed information but it seems not; when you covert to HTML this functionality
is lost.

I don't see any way of getting this information, unfortunately.
