Has anyone tried to export data to the "spreadsheet" data in a preformatted PowerPoint slide show?
I have a 2 slide show style reports that go to management monthly and am trying to decide how to get the monthly data into the report. Currently it is all done by accessing multiple spreadsheets and manually inserting the current numbers from the spreadsheets. So what I was thinking of doing was to create a SQL DB to centralize the report data and either export the numbers into the PowerPoint slides or link the slides to the data in SQL.
I am hoping to be able to export the data to the slides because the "reports" have to be emailed and because of the internal network and desktop security I cannot guarantee the SQL DB will be available to all recipients.
Any ideas are welcome!!!!
Thanks
