If you use the Open dialog, it opens in Normal view. In all respects this is the same as a PPT file, but when double-clicked, this opens in Slide Show View rather than Normal View. This file type comprises presentations that have been saved as a slide show in PowerPoint 97 to 2003. In all respects this is the same as a PPTX file, but when double-clicked, this opens in Slide Show View rather than Normal View. This file type comprises presentations that have been saved as a slide show. This is identical to the PPTX file format other than the fact that file type creates presentations with macros enabled. PPTM (PowerPoint Macro-Enabled Presentation) Most of the time, this is known as the PowerPoint 97 to 2003 format (or the PowerPoint 97 to 2004 format if you include Mac versions of PowerPoint). This file type was the default format for presentations created in PowerPoint versions 2003 and earlier. Also, it has four letters rather than three in the extension, for example PPTX rather than the older PPT format. It is based on XML and can be distinctly identified as different from the older file formats for PowerPoint. This file type is the default open option in PowerPoint 2007/2008 and later. Have you ever wondered what all those file types that are not grayed out are? Should you even be concerned about them at all? These are the file types that All files within any navigated folder are shown, and the only way you understand that a particular file type can be opened is because those files are not grayed out.įigure 1: File types that can be opened in PowerPoint 2016 for Mac But when you go and look at the file types that PowerPoint 2016 for Mac can open, you'll find that there's no drop-down list in the Open dialog box that you can see in Figure 1. Tested on El Capitain / PP 2011 : but I think there is nothing changed from PP 2011 to PP 2016 in the 'name of every presentation'.We already learned about the file types PowerPoint 2016 for MacĬan save. Log "Open new document = " & aDoc - do what ever you need to do !! If not (Old_list contains aDoc) then - new document has been opened !! Tell application "Microsoft PowerPoint" to set New_list to name of every presentationĭisplay alert "PowerPoint no longer launched" Repeat with I from 1 to 100 - for test, but it should be repeat with no limit Tell application "Microsoft PowerPoint" to set Old_list to name of every presentation - get initial list of open presentations If not PP_Running then return - Power point is not launched ! tell application "System Events" to set PP_Running to exists (processes where name is "Microsoft PowerPoint") The script also stops when you quit PowerPoint showing an alert (bloc try). For each iteration, it looks for list of PP presentation and compares with list before: if a presentation is not in previous list, then it is new, jut open ! Then script goes through a loop : in this example, it repeats 100 times (just for my test, but it should be repeat for ever !). If PP runs, then the script records the number of open presentations. An idea of possible work around is to loop checking the presentations opened, and compare it with presentations already open before.įirst, when this script starts running, it checks if PowerPoint is running (-> if not then quit).
