I am trying to create a powerpoint slideshow from a set of
graphic images using Visual Basic 6.0. I would like to be
able to pass the filensmes of the graphics to the VB
routine and have it generate a powerpoint slide show with
one graphic per slide. "InsertFromFile" doesn't seem to
work for a graphic file. Can anyone give me some help on
this??
 
Hello,

If you are using PowerPoint 2000, 2002 or 2003 this capability is already
available in the product (no VB6 coding required).

For PowerPoint 2000 you will have to install the Photo Album addin from the
Microsoft Office site:

For PowerPoint 2002 and 2003, the Photo Album feature is available directly
from Insert -> Picture -> New Photo Album
