Hi,
I have this following code to create the PPT with a specific template. But in this, the first slide of the PPT are coming blank. How to remove those blank slides?
PHP Code:
Sub CreatePowerPoint()
Answer = MsgBox("Are you sure you want to continue?" & vbNewLine & "Clicking 'YES' will create the DU Dashboard PPT" & vbNewLine & "You may want to set the range & Update VOC graph", vbYesNoCancel + vbInformation, "Warning: DU Dashboard graph")
If Answer = vbYes Then Else Exit Sub
'Add a reference to the Microsoft PowerPoint Library by:
'1. Go to Tools in the VBA menu
'2. Click on Reference
'3. Scroll down to Microsoft PowerPoint X.0 Object Library, check the box, and press Okay
'First we declare the variables we will be using
Dim newPowerPoint As PowerPoint.Application
Dim activeSlide As PowerPoint.Slide
Dim cht As Excel.ChartObject
Dim PPT As PowerPoint.Application
Set PPT = New PowerPoint.Application
PPT.Visible = True
PPT.Presentations.Open Filename:="Z:\Monthly Reports\DU Dashboard\DU Dashboard Template.pptx"
'Look for existing instance
On Error Resume Next
Set newPowerPoint = GetObject(, "PowerPoint.Application")
On Error GoTo 0
'Let's create a new PowerPoint
If newPowerPoint Is Nothing Then
Set newPowerPoint = New PowerPoint.Application
End If
'Make a presentation in PowerPoint
If newPowerPoint.Presentations.Count = 0 Then
newPowerPoint.Presentations.Add
End If
'Show the PowerPoint
newPowerPoint.Visible = True
'Loop through each chart in the Excel worksheet and paste them into the PowerPoint
For Each cht In ActiveSheet.ChartObjects
'Add a new slide where we will paste the chart
newPowerPoint.ActivePresentation.Slides.Add newPowerPoint.ActivePresentation.Slides.Count + 1, ppLayoutText
newPowerPoint.ActiveWindow.View.GotoSlide newPowerPoint.ActivePresentation.Slides.Count
Set activeSlide = newPowerPoint.ActivePresentation.Slides(newPowerPoint.ActivePresentation.Slides.Count)
'Copy the chart and paste it into the PowerPoint as a Metafile Picture
cht.Select
ActiveChart.ChartArea.Copy
activeSlide.Shapes.PasteSpecial(DataType:=ppPasteMetafilePicture).Select
'Set the title of the slide the same as the title of the chart
activeSlide.Shapes(1).TextFrame.TextRange.Text = cht.Chart.ChartTitle.Text
'Adjust the positioning of the Chart on Powerpoint Slide
newPowerPoint.ActiveWindow.Selection.ShapeRange.Left = 15
newPowerPoint.ActiveWindow.Selection.ShapeRange.Top = 80
activeSlide.Shapes(2).Width = 200
activeSlide.Shapes(2).Left = 505
Next
AppActivate ("Microsoft PowerPoint")
Set activeSlide = Nothing
Set newPowerPoint = Nothing
End Sub
