Automatic Text Entry from database?

Here's my problem.

I'm setting up a training material using powerpoint but we would like for
the employees to sign-in prior to taking the training (from their own
computer) to keep track of all the employees who have completed it and at the
end of the training to have an option to print a certificate of completion.
I would like the certificate of completion to insert the employee's name and
date automatically.

As for the sign-in process, I was thinking of using access that contains all
the userID and employees name. Based on the sign-on (userid) - the
certificate will print the corresponding employees name and the date the
training was completed.

My apologies if I couldnt explain this properly but hopefully someone can
help me or provide me with some tips as how I can accomplish this task. I
don't have 'admin' privileges so I won't be able to do any complex stuff.
 
Naresh Nichani, an Access MVP, and our own Steve Rindsberg have posted
some VBA code to get data from an Access database into PPT. See the
following on the PPTFAQ page.
