    Automating text box in PowerPoint based on Excel data

    Hi everyone,
    I'm new to VBA and would not mind some help from the community.
    What I'm trying to do is a macro in Powerpoint that reads an Excel file and creates a circle and text box for each and every line of my Excel sheet.
    See code below
    It works fine, but the only problem is that all the text boxes have the same orientation, equal to the final value of the Angle variable when the loop reaches the end.
    What I'm trying to do is to get the orientation of a text box matching the Angle variable in the corresponding row in Excel.
    Your help will be much appreciated.
