Question re-posted in the VB forum here – further answers there please!
I would like to enhance the “select multiple objects” dialog, to allow active display of selected objects, and add sorting buttons in that same box.
Questions:
1. Where can I find the code that will allow me to re-create (using an add-in and with macros/VB) the “select multiple objects” dialog
2. Is it possible to create the active link (changes in the selection box will immediately display in the active slide)?Probably most of what I want to do, has already been developed by MS MVP’s. Where can I get standard code “pieces, to build my add-in (the VB help and library is like ancient Chinese to me!)
Thank you
