I’ve got a similar problem with normal document properties, this works in Word:

______________________________________________________________________

Hey Dave,

There's no need to repeat through like that when you know what property you want to look at.

These both work with the apps from Office 2011.

----------------------------------------------------------

tell application id "com.microsoft.Word"

# USE ACTIVE DOCUMENT – IT'S FASTER.

tell active document

if value of document property "keywords" = "HARRY" then

set value of document property "keywords" to "FRED"

else

set value of document property "keywords" to "HARRY"

end if

end tell

----------------------------------------------------------

tell application id "com.microsoft.Powerpoint"

tell active window

tell its presentation

if value of document property "keywords" = "HARRY" then

set value of document property "keywords" to "FRED"

else

set value of document property "keywords" to "HARRY"

end if

end tell

----------------------------------------------------------

Figuring out PP's different syntax was a bit pesky, and without Script Debugger it would have been worse.

Best Regards,

Chris
