Hi,

Command bars and controls exist in 2007, despite what you could imagine
after the Ribbon...
How do you find them? I tried stepping through all the commands, but may
have missed how to find all.

For instance the following PPT VBA code works:
" Application.CommandBars.ExecuteMso ("SlideReset")"

But how could I find the control?!!
More importantly, how do I find the control for "Edit Data" in PPT? (Edit
the Chart data).


Many thanks,


Bob
 
"ChartShowData" - Be careful it will crash if used out of context (ie no
chart selected)
 
The command you mention is context specific and normally only available when
a chart is selected. In code you can call the command at other times.

To deduce the msoCommand name goto Office Button > PowerPoint Options >
Customize > All Commands and hover over the item in question (Edit data) I
think you will see how it's done!
