Clicking a command button gets no response

I have a command button on a slide with a VBA click event
that uses the ShellExecute function (which is declared in
the code) to open another PP file in .pps format. When I
first create the button and its associated code, all
works fine. Clicking the button causes the Click event to
execute and the other PP file opens and plays. However,
at some point when I load the PP file with the button,
the Click event quits executing. I have tried putting a
breakpoint in the code to see what is happening, but the
Click event is never initiated when the button is
clicked. It's as though PP has no clue that there is a
Click event associated with the button.

Any ideas?

I am using PowerPoint 2002.

By the way, the presentation seems to work fine on my
work computer which also runs PP 2002. The Click event
executes every time I click the command button.

I need to compare the exact version of PP on my work vs
home computer. Perhaps there is a bug in my version at
home and it needs updating.
