run an exe file as a screensaver in excel

I am running an excel speadsheet with links to update the data. I want to
run a screensaver periodically to stop monitor burn in. The file I want to
use is an exe file or a powerpoint presentation. What code do I use in VB to
run the file for a specific time period, then shut it down to display the
speadsheet again?
