    Powerpoint Macro for Pressing "Enter" Key after Commas in First Slide in Normal View

    Hello,

    I've opened Powerpoint in Normal View, and have entered text, for example:

    "He was hungry, and he ate a sandwich. The sandwich was alright, but tasted a little too salty. He walked over to the trashcan, and threw the sandwich away."

    But the text goes on for much longer.

    I can click after each comma and period to put each broken down phrase onto a new slide:

    Slide 1 = He was hungry,
    Slide 2 = and he ate a sandwich.
    Slide 3 = The sandwich was alright,
    Slide 4 = but tasted a little too salty.

    ETC.

    But I would like to make a macro to do this.

    This is what I have so far (from efforts made with the macro recorder):

    Oh! Actually my code works, I just realized the comma in my code was a Chinese comma, so it wasn't recognized!
