Can you trap the keyup or keydown events at the application level using VBA?
if so, how is that done?

You might want to subclass PowerPoint's main window and see if the messages
that you get are the ones you want to handle. An example of how to subclass
PowerPoint's main window is available at

Unless there's some way of doing it via the Windows API (and there may well
be), no. VBA doesn't offer any support for this.

Did Microsoft ever explain why they did away with the user-customized key
mapping in PowerPoint?

This is very clever. Thanks. It did solve another problem I was working on.
