From: Christine Fournier on 27 May 2010 17:44 Hi! I use PowerPoint 2003. I'm pretty comfortable using PowerPoint to create activities for the students (thanks to some of you ;-), but I am new to VBA. I read David Marcovitz book and I discovered a whole new world. I created an acitivity where the teacher is asked how many words she wants her student to copy and what those words are. After all the information is given, there is a new presentation that is created with those words. When the student uses the activity, she sees the word that she has to copy (on a text zone) and she copies it in a textbox control just under it. When the words are identical, she gets a star and the presentation advance to the next slide with anorther word to copy. For now, the student has to click on the textbox to get the cursor so that she can type. I would like the cursor to already be there so that the student only has to type. Is it possible to do it using VBA? I know I could use an InputBox, but I want the textbox to be big, with big letters and align with the model. Thank you for your help and sorry for the long post (maybe with some unecessary details and some mistakes from a French Canadian speaker). Christine./ |
