Introduction
This PowerPoint has several useful Macros attached to it.
To access these Macros click:
Tools >> Marco >> Marcos [Alt+F8] (on the toolbar)
From here you can run, edit, create & delete Macros.
TIP: get use to pressing [Alt+F8].
Running Macros
To run Macros:
If not already hit [Alt+F8]
Click the macro you want and hit “Run”
WARNING: Generally speaking you cannot undo macros (especially in MS Excel) and so it’s a good idea to save a backup before you run a new/unfamiliar Macro.
Using these Macros in another PowerPoint document
Instructions:

Open/create your own PPT document.
Hit [Alt-F8] in your PPT document, and clickMacro in: “All open presentations”

Problems Running Macros
Sometimes you may find you can’t run Macros. This is to do with security settings, and a can be awkward to get around too.
Easiest way around this is go:
Tools >> Macros >> Security … >> Security Level, change the setting to “Medium” and click OK.
Close and reopen PowerPoint before it takes effect.
A better method is to use/install certificates you do this under “Trusted Publishers” tab to create you OWN certificate is harder – you can read about it on the “Signing Macros” slide, or try Google.
