I understand that but If we see how you handled the score we will be able to judge your skill level and come up with a suitable answer.
"Come back on slide 10 tells me nothing. Best bet is post the slides somewhere.
If you do know what you are doing and the Textbox they enter the name into is called TextBox1 on slide 1
You can read it's current value with:
Code:
ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Shapes("TextBox1").OLEFormat.Object.Text
You could also right click the textbox >> View code and set a module wide variable strName to the content each time they change
Code:
Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
strName = Me.TextBox1.Text
End Sub
