FAQs

Where can I download the BCG macros for PowerPoint?

Several consulting firms, including BCG, have a set of custom PowerPoint macros to help speed up the process of making presentations.

While these are typically proprietary to the individual firms, you can install an open source PowerPoint macro tool like Instrumenta instead.

Instrumenta offers all of the same functionality as the BCG macros in an open package.

Here is the link to download it. You can follow the instructions at the top of the page to install it.

Can you run macros in PowerPoint?

Yes, macros are a great way to quickly manipulate text, objects, and shapes, in your PowerPoint presentations.

Many advanced PowerPoint users like to have a specialized "macro" toolbar that gives them quick access to these types of commands.

How can I record a macro in PowerPoint?

Enable the Developer Tab, click Record Macro, and then record your actions. You will be able to edit the VBA code afterwards to customize your macro.
