Merging Powerpoint slides with vba 1

[idarke]

Does anyone know how I can extract a slide from a powerpoint file on disk and merge it into the currently open powerpoint presentation using vba?

I can do it from the file menu, but cannot find a way to do it in a macro.

I have Powerpoint 97. Upgrading is possible if it helps solve my problem.

Thanks!

Try:

ActivePresentation.Slides.InsertFromFile _
"path\filename.ppt", 1, 2, 3

where 1 is the index, 2 is start & 3 is end

Thanks very much! I'll give it a try and let you know.
