embedded object
Hi,
Check: http://www.powerpointmagician.com/ar...dynamicppt.htm
Look at the sections titled "A Show in a Show" and "Visual Basic and
PowerPoint"

Hi,
I am trying to figure out how to create an object that users can insert
into Powerpoint and Excel by going to Insert--Object (and I will
hopefully be able to insert one programmatically as well).
The behavior I need from my object is very similar to that of MS Graph.
I want to be able to go to "Insert--Object", and instead of choosing
MSGraph, choose MyObject. Then, I would like to be able to click on the
created instance on the slide/worksheet and be able to format it--the
same way that a user can interact with MSGraph, but of course with
whatever functionality I write.
What is the best way to do this? I am getting a bit confused with
ActiveX controls/exes/dlls and OLE objects and not sure what to use. I
can create a control that can be added from the control toolbox, but not
through Insert--Object. Also, I'm not sure how to go about adding to
it the functionality similar to MSGraph.
I truly appreciate any help you might be able to give me!
Thanks in advance,
-Casey
