Macro Troubleshooting
If you’re having trouble getting this PowerPoint to work, be sure to “Enable Macros” when opening the file. If you don’t see this box when you open PowerPoint, your security settings may be set too high. In this case, go to the “Tools” menu and select “Options.” Click on [Macro Security…] and then select “Medium.” Press OK until you return to the show. Now save this file and then re-open it. You should now receive the dialog shown above. Click “Enable Macros” Note: some of the functions may not work with versions of PowerPoint other than PowerPoint That’s the only version I’ve tested it on. I’m sure it won’t work on PowerPoint for Mac 2008.
