Hello All,
Using: Office 2003 Professional
Please excuse me if my post is to general, but I do not have much experience
with PP. I am well versed with Excel and Access and familliar with VBA. At
my workplace, we generate a very large PP Presentation. Slide 1 has a chart,
a spredsheet, a photo and a couple of text boxes. Slide 2 has a laerg
textbox and Slides 3-? (depending on how much data there is to display) is a
spreadsheet that may continue on for several slides. Then the next slide
starts it all over again with the same format but different data. Th total
amount of slides can be as high as 60+. As of now they are all updated by a
fleet of personnel manually.
1. I would like to know how I can automatically generate this PP Pres with
the use of Access or Excel as a data source?
2. Can slide 2 be set up to mailmerge fields?
3. Can slide 3-? be one spreadsheet and made to automatically overflow to
the next slide with field/column headers on the new slide?
4. Can the photo in in slide 1 be fed from an OLE field in access or auto
filled some other way?
5. What is the easiest way to automate the fill for my Chart as all of the
data for this project can probably be sourced from 1 table, but would require
either a filter or a query for each part. (they are currently embedding or
linking the same file over and over with a different view of the data).
Sorry if my questions are convoluted.
