Resizing Powerpoint table rows with VBA

[Randall Arnold]

I've been doing VBA programming with Access, Word and Excel for years but I'm
just now getting around to Powerpoint.

I'm trying to programmatically add a small table to a slide and fill it with
text values. For the most part this works. However, while I can specify the
width as I choose, the table height (and row height) properties do not change
when I set them. It doesn't matter what value I use, they stay the same. I
have 12 point text in each cell and just need the rows to be, say, 20 points
or so high-- but right now they're more like 100. I can't find a solution in
the PP VBA ref.

Any ideas?

Nevermind-- the problem was that I hadn't resized the fonts in column 2: they
were at 28 point! D'oh!
