Hi Is can you not add a reference to ppt object then open it up from there (it is a COM object): http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa220907(office.11).aspx to create the application. Then use this resource to get the desired effects: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa213568(office.11).aspx This provides a complete overview of the power point object model so you can use its functionality to get what you want. I am sure there will be an activex control but I have only ever done it this way so can only offer this help. Hope it is of use Dan

If you're not willing to do it the way that has been suggested, then I'd recommend black magic, it's as likely to work as anything else, once you've excluded the right way of doing things.
