Controlling Powerpoint's first slide and last slide using C#

Question

Hello! Good day!

I want to control Powerpoint using C#. I'd like to ask if how are you going to code in which a certain button will eventually move your Ppt. to the first slide, and another button that will move your Ppt. to the last or buttom slide of the presentation?

I am using Powerpoint 2007.

Thank you so much for the help.

Hi kelbee18,

Thanks for posting in the MSDN Forum.

I would recommend you clarify your goal more detailed. Where do you want to put your button? Is it on PowerPoint's ribbon or on the slide.

Have a good day,

Tom

Answer 2

Hello!

Thank you for replying.

I would like to build a UI. The buttons will be placed in UI. The scenario is this, I have a handtracking code which is image processing using C# in Visual Studio 2012, however, I do not know how to link my handtracking code to the PowerPoint, such that if I move my hand to the right (as seen on the camera), the slide will go to the next slide, otherwise to the previous slide, and also if I move my hand upwards the slide will move to the first slide, otherwise to the last slide.

Thank you so much for the help, Sir Tom.
