PPT2000: Macro Recorder Doesn't Record Changes to Options Dialog (222750)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft PowerPoint 2000

This article was previously published under Q222750

SYMPTOMS

If you make changes in the Options dialog box (click Options on the Tools menu) while you are recording a macro, the changes are not recorded.

CAUSE

The PowerPoint macro recorder does not record mouse clicks or keystrokes. It attempts to analyze these actions and then create equivalent Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications code. The settings in the Options dialog box do not have a Visual Basic equivalent. Therefore, the macro recorder does not record these actions.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft PowerPoint 2000.
