    Error while creating Organizational Chart in Powerpoint (VBA)

    Hello Friends,

    I am trying to automate PowerPoint using VB6. I want to dynamically create an organizational chart in Powepoint, from a VB6 application.

    I have Office 2003.

    I am getting error on the following line, when i try to add a node in the Organizational Chart.

    ppSlide3.Shapes.AddOLEObject 100, 150, 400, 300, "OrgPlusWOPX.4"

    Error:
    Runtime-error: '-2147467259 (80004005)':
    Method "AddOLEObject" of object "Shapes failed"


    I have used the code provided on the following link:

    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/222929

    Kindly help me out in this regard.

    I would be grateful.

    Have a great day
    Bye

    what is ppslide3?
    is it just a slide in your presentation or an object in your vb code?
    are other parts of the code working correctly?
    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

    Hi

    I noticed this post and was wondering if you found a solution and if you can share how you actually create the boxes of the org chart.

    Looking forward to hearing from you

    Regards

    Meir
