You can store VBA macros in the Excel Personal Workbook, and in the Word Normal Template, that can be accessed by any other Excel workbook (or Word document).VBA macros can't be effectively used outside of the MS Office app that they were written for. How eg Keyboard Maestro could invoke such a macro.How you can store a macro outside of a presentation or spreadsheet.What I’d like to know with the VBA route is Let me know if you need any further help. I assume you know how to put this script into an Execute AppleScript in a Macro, which of course you can set any hot key trigger you like. Set font name to "Lucida Grande" - "Futura" IAC, I am more than willing to help you with this, and here is an AppleScript to set the font properties of the selected text: tell application "Microsoft PowerPoint" To view it, open Script Editor, and then File > Open Dictionary > Microsoft PowerPoint. The Scripting Dictionary is very comprehensive. Microsoft has really screwed us in PowerPoint by not providing the same level of VBA support as they do for Word and Excel.įortunately, PPT is very scriptable. I see the option in Excel but when recording there and then trying to run it in PowerPoint I get my sincere apologies for leading you down a blind, dead-end alley. I wasn't able to figure out how to record the macro with PowerPoint.
