Reinventing?

Hi there, I'm well aware that WHDLoad has removed the need for many old game codes, but I was bored and found a rotation macro for powerpoint.

The result is a virtual codewheel for F/A18 Interceptor, where you click one of three buttons (one for each wheel) to rotate it to find the code.

It worked when I made it but I'm pretty sure the work computer has prevented the macros from running any more. That or I stuffed it up somehow

That's interesting, thanks for sharing.

To get it to work, I had to reduce the level of macro security.

It should be (Office 2003 and translated from French so might not be 100% accurate for English users) in Tools - > Macros -> Security. Then choose either low level or medium level (which let's you choose which macros are allowed to run or not).

Then you need to open the powerpoint file or to close and open it if it was already open (to be able to change which macros are able to run).
Then you need to "run" the presentation Shift + F5.


Some people might be interested by that macro. I remember some did wheels in Flash but getting another way to do them can only prove useful.
