powerpoint >> How to capture powerpoint events in applescript

by RAHUL » Thu, 18 Jun 2009 01:19:19 GMT

Hi,

I want to create an applescript which open's a saved PPT in
powerpoint, let the user edit it and as soon as the user closes the
PowerPoint OR saves it, the script should get notified.

Does PowerPoint sends an Apple Event (applicaiton close event) which
the apple script can capture. Is there any way to capture events sent
by other applications in applescript.

Thanks in advance
