How do I create powerpoint files, save them using Visual Basic or MFC. My
goal is to read standard text files and create slide from each line from the
file.

Here is an example of a file:

1. I am here
2. You are too

This would create a presentation file with two slides

Save that text as a plain ascii file with a TXT extension.
Open it in PowerPoint.
