Hi,
I am preparing a presentation to teach a class, and would like to use an
interactive website within the presentation. I have considered add-ins like
LiveWeb, however, this needs to be installed on the machine on which the
presentation will be played. I am unable to install any applications on this
computer as a) I won't have access before hand, and b) due to administrative
constraints installations are prohibited.
As it is an interactive site, this precludes the option of simply taking
screenshots. I am aware that I could use a hyperlink and open it up
separately in a my browser, however I am trying to avoid this. I am using
PPT 2007. I also tried capturing the .swf file that is used by the site,
however it will not display anything beyond the first page. Any suggestions
would be greatly appreciated.

If it makes any difference, the site which I am trying to incorporate is:
http://www.3pounds.com/artyastro/activites/solar_system/solar_system.html

Thanks again for any input
 
This would be possible using the WebBrowser object and vba BUT will you be
able to use vba and activX objects?
 
You would need to add a command button from the control toolbox and also a
Microsoft Web Browser control (more controls)

Assuming the default name the code for the button_click would look like
this:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Me.WebBrowser1.Navigate ("http://www.google.co.uk")
End Sub

I believe I would be able to. What would such a code look like in order
to
do so?

Hi Jon

Just to add to John's excellent reply, Active X is code so you will need to
make sure the security settings will allow it to run.

You will also need to save as a pptm, not a pptx - PowerPoint should prompt
you about this.
