createing a powerpoint slide from a web page

[bsg92150]

i have a task that requires me to provide a web use with the ability to send
teh current page to a power point slide.
and to further complicate matters. the user may want to put the whole site
into a slide. the problem is that the information is database driven and the
user may not have visted the pages tha/
thankst he is requestion to download. my question is is this possable and is
there an example out there that i can look at

I would look at the automation model for outlook. There ^might^ (and
this is a total guess) be a way to insert an HTML page as a slide (if you
can do it through the UI, you should be able to do it through the automation
model).

If that is possible, then what you would do is crawl through the site,
getting the html for each page (with the HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse
classes) and then give the powerpoint slide that HTML. Of course, you would
have to resolve image links as well, and things like that.

Another problem is that you have to figure out how to navigate through
the powerpoint presentation. Powerpoint presentations are linear, while
websites are graph structures, which aren't linear.
