I have an app who produces data I need to present to an audience
I'd like not to bother with presentation in my code, rather just produce a data structure (XML or whatever...) that would be taken by a presentation engine that should combine it with a predefined graphic schema to display the presentation. The presentation should include grpahic primitives like background static images, optionally some small animation and basic charts
I have recently seen "avalon" in a microsoft conference, that would be ideal but it's not yet available, is there any current product allowing me to do the job
BTW: I only know C# and Vc++, so not VB stuff, please..
Thank you for your suggestions
 
Antonio,
have a look at www.take-off.as/datapoint
No programming required, just link your presentation to a data source in
order to refresh online your presentation or to generate a new static
presentation.

Does the data link need to be "live" or would it be sufficient to, in effect,
merge print a PPT master with your data to produce a new presentation that
includes your data wherever there were "placeholders" or merge fields in the
master?

If the latter'd do, have a look at our PPTools Merge addin at www.pptools.com
