Hi all,

I want to know how to return the index for the currently selected slide(not
the slide show). Right now i'm using the code below to do that. But the
problem is I do not know how to get the index 'J' for slides.

TWord$ =
Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.ActivePresentation.Slides(J).Shapes(2).TextFrame.TextRange.Words(I).Text

Can someone show me the way on how to get the value for J? Thank you.

Regards,
Westman
 
J = ActiveWindow.Selection.SlideRange.SlideIndex maybe
Click to expand...

Or, if the slideshow is currently running, you might try:

ActivePresentation.SlideShowWindow.View.Slide.Shapes
(2).TextFrame.TextRange.Words(I).Text
