I wonder if anyone here can help me. If got a presentation in powerpoint
that has some multi choice questions. The last slide tells the user how many
questions they got correct.
Okay, so I'm fine up to this point but what I want to do is include a button
or something on the last slide which the user would have to click on to
close the presentation (I'm ok with that) but emails the score or the last
slide back to me.
This is the original code I picked up somewhere.
Any information will be gratefully received
