    I want to create a powerpoint presentation in VB6

    I am trying to create a Powerpoint presentation in VB6. Each slide will contain 1 picture from a directory on my PC. there are about 100 pictures in that directory, so I want to write 100 slides. Ideally these pictures fit exactly on the slide.

    2 Questions?

    1) how do I do this? So far I have been able do dabble with it, but I cannot get this right

    2) where can i find documentation/literature on the Powerpoint object library in VB6.

    Any help is appreciated,

    Thanks,

    Siep

    Re: I want to create a powerpoint presentation in VB6

    check out the tutorial for automating office applications in the faq thread at the top of the office development forum
    i do not know how much powerpoint specific information is included
    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed

    Welcome to the forum!

    Please don't bump old threads (this one is 4 years old) or post in other people's threads. If you have a question create a new thread for it, and if it is related to some other thread (like this one), post a link to it in yours.
