Question

I feel I lack some real basics and I feel I would waste your time if ask all those basic questions here. Can you please recommend a good PowerPoint VBA tutorial that would explain basics to me. A tutorial povided with examples is prefered.

Answer 1

There are no books just about PowerPoint VBA that I can find. But you will find chapters about PowerPoint VBA in books that cover VBA for the whole Microsoft Office Suite, such as "Mastering VBA 2019 For Microsoft Office 365 (2019 Edition)", by Richard Mansfield.

All of the Microsoft Office programs have VBA, which comes in two parts: the basic VBA language, which includes if/elseif/else, for and while loops, et cetera, plus an Object Model that's used to access the basic objects in the program (for Excel, that's worksheets, cells...). The PowerPoint Object Model is described in the book I mention, plus it can be found at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/vba/api/overview/powerpoint.
