PPT97: Incorrect Code Recorded Changing Fonts in Grouped ObjectLast reviewed: December 2, 1997Article ID: Q157375 |
The information in this article applies to:
SYMPTOMSYou may get the following error message when running a macro that was recorded to change the text attributes of a selected object:
TextFrame (unknown member): Invalid request. This type of shape cannot have a TextRange. CAUSEThis occurs because you have selected multiple objects that are grouped. The macro tries to change the text range of the group shape, which is not a valid request within PowerPoint.
WORKAROUNDIf you ungroup your objects, you can run the macro separately for each object containing text, or you can manually change the text attributes by selecting the text and applying the changes.
STATUSMicrosoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
