You don't. It doesn't expose itself to automation unless you can do what you
need to with SendKeys.

That's the type library for the previous version of the viewer which is no
longer available from MS (though you may be able to find it someplace else on
the web). I'm pretty sure that if you install it, you'll get the .olb file.

If you can't find and install the viewer, then the olb file will do you no
good.
 
How would i keep track of the events generated in presentation... That is
when i invoke a slideshow the change of slide events i could able to get it
using add-ins but how to keep track of the animations that is occuring in the
slide show... When any animation happens then i would like to display a
message using Visual basic?

No events would be generated by the 2003 viewer.
There's nothing to keep track of.

You can't. I'm sorry, I know it's not what you want, but it's the way it is.
