URGENT PowerPoint 2003 Help needed.

[wallacethegreat]

Hi All,

I am just at college and trying to create a powerpoint presentation with visual basic commands.

What I am trying to do is create a macro that will enable someone to enter their name into a text box prior to taking a short test.

Here is how i am creating the VBA code

Sub yourname()
username = InputBox(prompt:="Please Enter Your Name", Title:="Input Name")
ActivePresentation.SlideShowWindow.View.Next
End Sub

I am also creating a UserForm then adding a frame, then adding a text box, but as I click on the text box to place it in the frame I get

Error 800a0011


I have google'd and Microsoft help searched this error code to no avail

Can anyone help me this is driving me nuts and has been for ages

All help is appreciated

P.S. I use Solaris 10 at home and StarOffice8 but here at college I've got to use Windows

Thanks in advance
