PowerPoint Addin command bar button events

[Nick]

Hi there,

I'm a tad confused with this issue, I can create a button bar with a
button and use the AddHandler event to respond to the click event. But this
only works upon creation, lets say I restart PowerPoint and reuse the
button, AddHandler ceases to work. Even referencing the object WithEvents
doesn't work.

I'm also a little confused as to how I am supposed to remove the bar
once the addin is uninstalled too, or do I have to delete it when the plugin
disconnects and save it's position? Thanks loads in advance!!

Also does anyone know how to get a reference to the powerpoint filename
currently opened? Thanks again!!

I should also mention im doing it in .NET and VS.NET 2003.

Right I've actually managed to obtain the correct handle for the button when
it already exists now so I suppose my only 2 questions that remain are,

1) How do I remove the button on uninstallation?
2) How do I get a reference to the documents filename currently loaded
in PowerPoint?

Thanks loads in advance!

BTW. Where the hell do I find references about these objects?

Disregard that, I found a VB6 reference that will do.

Ive got the filename just the uninstallation bit now.

All done and dusted so no need to not answer any more of my questions ;-)
