Using Access VBA to update PowerPoint Presentation

[ejsmith]

I have a need to update both the titles and underlying graph data in a PowerPoint presentation from an Access VBA module.
I can't seem to get a handle on how to populate the slides/titles/graph data - I can't even figure out the naming conventions of the PowerPoint objects!
Any advice/direction/code snipets would be greatly appreciated!

thats a start above but somewhere on MSDN is a brilliant article on hwo to do this,

be warned though creating powerpoint presentations in VBA is a heck of a lot of code, so make sure you have a comfy chair when you begin

Go to the VBE, go to help, choose Microsoft PowerPoint visual basic reference. There is an object model there...

Thanks guys - these are great starts. This sounds like its not going to be much fun.
Why can't PowerPoint VBA be more like Excel?
