This free macro will open the Microsoft PowerPoint program on your computer. You do need to have this program first. This will not open a specific file or PowerPoint presentation but only the program itself. It can be attached to a button or checkbox or form and set to run when that item is clicked or this code can be input into an existing macro in excel.
Note:You must already have Microsoft PowerPoint on your computer for this macro to work.
