Hi all,

Can someone please help me with some vba to apply to a button which would
show the previous custom animation shown?

Many thanks,
Michael

Hi again,

Perhaps this is more difficult than I imagine?

Just to clarify what I am trying to achieve...

I would like to be able to use a button on the PowerPoint stage that, once
clicked, would go back to the previous custom animation - much like the way
the mouse wheel does when viewing the slideshow.

Can someone help please?

Many thanks,
Michael

I believe that ActivePresentation.SlideShowWindow.View.Previous rolls
back the last animation. If there is no animation to roll back, it goes
to the previous slide.

Thanks for the reply David.

I believe that 'ActivePresentation.SlideShowWindow.View.Previous' goes back
to the previous slide rather than the previous custom animation, but I will
give it another try and see how we get on.

Regards,
Michael

Hi David,

That indeed does go back to the previous custom anim!

Many thanks for your help!

Many regards,
