Hosting a MS PowerPoint Viewer insied a windows Form

Good day!
I have such problem.
I must play the PowerPoint presentation in my application. Several ActiveX components (f.e. EDraw Office Viewer) can do that but if the MS Office is not installed, they become useful.

So, I need a way to view the PPT/PPS file without Office installed.

The only application that can do this is MS PowerPoint Viewer (I`ve found only it at this time). But it doesn`t install/register any OCX that I can use in my application to view PPTs.

So the question is: is it possible to host the MS PowerPoint Viewer inside a Windows Form (at least)?

Any help appreciated.

PS the application is under development in WPF/C#.
