Access database of powerpoint slides

1 New Member
I need to build a database of powerpoint slides in MS Access. This database will be set up so a presentation can be queried, and all slides for that persentation will be presented. Also, I need to be able to preview each slide. The user wants this because now they have to go into each slide in each presentation to make updates. With a database, they will only have to update each slide once. Each slide may be used in multiple presentations. Can I do this in Access? If so, How? Is there a better way? Thank you

I have read postings on the similar subject including the posting from 2003 shown below. This process works fine to display a single page snapshot report in PowerPoint. I need to display subsequent pages from the same snapshot file in subsequent slides in PowerPoint. I realize that it is possible to add VB code to the Snapshot Viewer Control and that there are properties such as .FirstPage, .NextPage, .LastPage, etc, But I can't find...

1) Is it possible to create a powerpoint file with asp.net? I've Googled it and can't seem to find a definitive guide. 2) If it is possible to create a powerpoint file with asp.net, is it possible to pull exisiting slides together in a certain order rather than creating the slides from scratch?

Hey folks, my mind is turning into mush... I created a report tracking program in access that works beyond my greatest expectations. So of course, I am constantly adding features to make life easier for my users (and harder for myself). Every week my secretary exports different sets of data into Excel (via cmd buttons on form) then copies and pastes the data into powerpoint slides for our weekly staff meeting. I want to simplify this...

Hi everyone, I'm wanting to use VB.NET to display a powerpoint presentation, much the same way as the presenter that comes with PowerPoint (when used on multiple monitors). Basically, I want to show the presentation in one form/window, and in the other, have controls for moving through the presentation, list of slides, etc. I don't really want code as such, more like a tutorial on how to do something like this.

Converting PowerPoint to Flash would absolutely be a good choice to distribute your bulky PowerPoint presentations. You can do the whole PowerPoint to Flash conversion manually or with professional applications. First, you'll need to prepare the PowerPoint files. Make sure you are not using any complicated gradients or animations. These will be interpreted poorly when they are brought into Flash. Also, make sure there are no objects that...
