UseLongFileNames Property

Microsoft PowerPoint Visual Basic

Determines whether long file names are used. Read/write MsoTriState.

MsoTriState can be one of these MsoTriState constants.
msoCTrue
msoFalse Long file names are not used and the DOS file name format (8.3) is used.
msoTriStateMixed
msoTriStateToggle
msoTrue Default. Long file names are used when you save or publish a complete or partial presentation as a Web page.

Remarks

If you don't use long file names and your presentation has supporting files, Microsoft PowerPoint automatically organizes those files in a separate folder. Otherwise, use the OrganizeInFolder property to determine whether supporting files are organized in a separate folder.

Example

This example disallows the use of long file names as the global default for the application.

Application.DefaultWebOptions.UseLongFileNames = msoFalse
