I wish to have an Applescript which will change the color of selected text on a slide in a Microsoft Powerpoint presentation.
Is anyone able to offer any help? Would be much appreciated.

set desiredColor to {250, 125, 62} -- 8-bit RGB triad
tell application "Microsoft PowerPoint"
	activate
	set theSelection to the selection of the active window
	if the selection type of theSelection is not selection type text then
		display dialog "This script is only meant to work when there is currently selected text."
	else
		set the font color of the font of the text range of theSelection to desiredColor
	end if
end tell
