Application.OnTime() is supported by Microsoft Excel. It is not available
with PowerPoint. You would have resort to using Windows APIs SetTimer() and
KillTimer().

Hi LKH,

You should look at the PPT FAQ for resources in learning to code in
PowerPoint VBA. PowerPoint is a very different animal than Excel or Word or
any other app I have ever run across.
www.pptfaq.com

We will gladly help you learn how to do your task, but rarely will we do the
task for you. ... something about teaching to fish.

I would also suggest changing from a 10 second cycle to 3 minutes or so.
Otherwise, one save event may overrun the previous one and many ugly things
are likely to happen (think in terms of Lehman Brother's).

There is a free sequential save add-in that may do some of what you want.

PowerPoint does not have Auto macros for presentations. It has them for
add-ins only. So, you would need to create an add-in. You might want to
simply use the Sequential Save add-in from http://skp.mvps.org/
