Hi all,

i have a 2-3 cells in an Excel sheet, which i read as title and subtitle values for a Powerpoint slide.

The title is written without problem, but i get error for the subtitle.
Run-time error:

Placeholders.Item : Integer out of range. 2 is not in Index's valid range of 1 to 1

my code:
Code:
        PP_Slide.Shapes.Placeholders.Item(1).TextFrame.TextRange.Text = "Test Title " & current_year 

PP_Slide.Shapes.Placeholders.Item(2).TextFrame.TextRange.Text = mySheet.Cells(5, "A").Value
same error either with .Placeholders(2) or .Placeholders.Item(2).


PS: posted over vbaexpress too (no solution)

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
