Do you really need to do it in VB? Powerpoint itself can do that...

If you have a need to do this from VB.NET then you can use Interop with
Powerpoint to achive Powerpoint Automation. That is, you create an instance
of Powerpoint by code, without user interface, and instruct it to do stuff
for
your.

Search for Powerpoint Automation with .NET or similar on google.

HTH,

I have an application that has an Access table that stores the locations of slides in a Powerpoint file. This used to work fine when there were about 4 files and 200 slides.

Now there are 8 files, nearly 500 slides and the computer is bogging down with trying to open them all at once. I know that Access...

Hello, Just wondering if anyone can advise. I am trying to remotely control Powerpoint using a microprocessor. I am using RS232 (COM1). The idea is that the microprocessor sends ASCII strings to the PC and Powerpoint changes to the corresponding slide. For example: 01n - Go to slide 1 05n - Go to slide 5 02n - Go to slide 2, etc I have managed to get a VBscript macro going in Powerpoint. Once the show begins I click a button to...

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. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
