Keypress detection during a powerpoint presentation
From what I have heard so far - it is not possible as a PowerPoint
Presentation does not expose any events (really useful!).
So I have been advised to use a system hook... problem is I do not have the
first idea where to start.
I am happy to do this in VB or VBA whichever way I can, but I need to
capture Alt-q as a key sequence during the presentation, then to fire off a
Macro.
Thank you
Dom
