PPT files with Macros : Presentation.VbaProject is null

Aspose.Slides Product Family

Hi support,

I am trying to define if a presentation contains macros. It seems that with PPT files, the property VbaProject is null. I use the latest version of Aspose.Slides : 14.3.0.

Sample code

var ppt = new Presentation(pptFile);
var pptVbaProject = ppt.VbaProject == null ? "(null)" : ppt.VbaProject.ToString();
Trace.WriteLine("PPt VbaProject: " + pptVbaProject);

var pptm = new Presentation(pptmFile);
Trace.WriteLine("PPtm VbaProject: " + pptm.VbaProject);

Output

PPt VbaProject: (null)
PPtm VbaProject: System.Byte[]

Please find attached SlidesWithMacros.ppt and SlidesWithMacros.pptm, the files used for my tests, in a zip file.

Thank you,
Lea.
