Embed PowerPoint Presentation into a form

1 New Member
I'm in the middle of writing an application to display a scrolling marquee and a PowerPoint presentaion on multiple monitors. Powerpoint is unable to display more than one presentaion on one PC so I'm resorting to doing it myself.

I can convert the PowerPoint file to HTML and show the presentation in a form this way, however the conversion process makes a mess of some of the more complex slides.

So, is it possible to show a powerpoint presentation within a VB.NET form? I'm Using VB 2005 Express Edition.

thanks

Paul

For this I am using those classes like PowerPoint.Application, PowerPoint.Presentation, PowerPoint.Slides, ......

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...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
