Download: PowerPoint VBA macro to save numbered and dated versions of workbook files

[KurtShuler]

Note: I posted the PowerPoint version rather than the Excel version of my macro. My bad for posting here!

I created this macro based on a similar Word VBA macro from Graham Mayor that does this for MS Word documents. This macro takes a file like "file.pptx" and saves it as "file-2011-08-29-v001.pptm". Running the macro again increments the file name to "file-2011-08-29-v002.pptm" and saves it.

Save this code in a VBA module and attach it to a Quick Access Toolbar icon of your choice. It will only work within .pptm files.

I use this to keep track of versions of presentations when I make changes or when I send to others to make changes.

Graham Mayor's original MS Word VBA code to so this is at

Hope it is useful to someone.

Snb,
Thanks. I think I can learn from your code, but it will take me awhile to parse it. It's not very human friendly to read and understand.
