Can I send an email from the last slide of a
presentation? What I would like to do is send some kind
of a pre formated email showing that someone has
completed the presentation, can I do this as an object or
some kind of macro

Thanks
KC
 
You can include a hyperlink:

mailto://your.address@your_domain.thing

It might work, it might not, depending on the user's email setup. At best,
it'll fire up their email reader with a new message pre-addressed to you.
It'd be up to the user to fill in the rest. Not very useful for your
purposes, I'd guess.

Something more elaborate could be done with VBA, but relying on the user's
email client is precarious at best. A macro might also do some other
things instead - creating a simple PPT file and saving it to an FTP
location, for example. That wouldn't require anything but an internet
connection. Oh. Yeah. How ya gonna make sure they have one of those?
