  Dear All-VBA-Experts,
  my problem is that I need a VBA-code due to collapse or expand the hierarchic of all grouped shapes which is shown in the selection and visibility pane. E.g. some shapes are grouped into an option. So if I open the selection pane all sub-shapes are expanded, and I must close (collapse) it before I get an overview in the selection list. Usually I have about 30 grouped options and sometime the sub-grouped shapes are built from single shapes or sub-sub-shapes.
  Thank you for your help.
  Niko
