Thanks Bob: I believe an individual with a foundational understanding
of VBA taking the code-your-own route would spend approximately 8
hours and still not have features like sizing the objects in
PowerPoint to fit the slide master. An individual taking the XPPort
route would take one hour including going 100% through the web demo
and reading all of the licensing agreement. These estimates are for
the first job. Each job thereafter for the code-your-own would take
one hour and using XPPort would take 15 seconds for a typical job of
20 slides ported from Excel. These are estimates - if anyone has taken
either route, please validate.
Thanks Steve: Another example of customer feedback making the product
better!
