I didn't know if I should place this question in this group or in an
excel group or a MS access group, its a little bit of everything.

Right now I have created a PP presentation with embedded worksheets and
the worksheets are actually just SQL query which draw information from
the MS access database. I'm trying to figure out a way to have the
worksheets update themselves (by that I mean pull the info from the
database) without me having to go open each worksheet individually and
then click "enable automatic refresh" which is what I do currently.

Hi,
You need to have a look at datapoint from www.presentationpoint.com.
With that addon you can build your own live information display that
updates content continuously.

Kurt

Others (Shyam Pillai, Steve Rindsberg, and Brian Reilly come to mind)
have shared code similar to that in the links below.
