Powerpoint presentation in Application

[guidogast]

Hello,

I'm looking for a way to put a powerpoint presentation into a VB project I'm working on. Is this possible? I've searched google upside down, but I couldn't find anything usefull.

Anybody knows a legit (or hack) way to get this in the application?

Thanks,
Guidogast

Read thru the following post http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=661816 where at one point I show how to embed an external app into a form. I have not tried with with PP be it should work as it is no different and any other app.

I've been looking around the interwebz for a solution, or a solid trail to follow for a solution and have not found a solution.


If you view the attachment, the following will explain what my goal is.

Green - functionality to display a video file on a loop or display PowerPoint presentation on a loop
Yellow - show local weather and sports scores
White - display message of the day
Gray - display a horizontal scrolling informal message


I'm capable of doing all of this with the exception of the Green panel contents of displaying a video or power point presentation.

If I have to use a plugin or 3rd part control, I am open to that but haven't had any luck finding anything on that front either. Any help would be appreciated.

Also, I have all versions of the .NET framework at my disposal. I have both VS2010 and VS2013.
