Have you thought about saving them as PDF files? Then you could display them in a form easily enough.

Just one by one, it is not a slide-show. But how to do that? It is not an automation job to control PowerPoint which the user may not have installed. Would there be any other way than to export the slides to, say, png files and then open a PictureBox with the png file? It would be better to use a vector format as it is possible to resize without quality loss but which format? And then another display control should be used as the PictureBox can't show vector graphics as far as I know. /gustav _______________________________________________ dba-VB mailing list dba-VB at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-vb http://www.databaseadvisors.com
