Save progress button (macros) vba within Powerpoint Game? How?

~SageMint Nov 10, 2012 Student General Artist

I cannot find anything on this, except a small excerpt in wikipedia that it can be done.
I'm creating a game in powerpoint(I have 2003) and I will be coding with the vba(macros).

I want to be able to have a save game progress feature. In what way do I create the code? Or is there a code that already exists I could use?

I have sort of a beginners understanding of macros and its coding. I've made a few things already that function pretty well.

Anything will help, thank you!

I Also used to make a powerpoint game...
I just added alot of buttons and made them invinsiable that lead to other slides.
But then i upgraded to 2007 and i lost all my progress.
