Embedding powerpoint presentations - 17 Oct 2004 21:45 GMT

Does anyone know how to embed a powerpoint presentation in a windows forms
applikation. I can't find any documentation on how to do this anywhere. Seems
there isn't an Active-X control for viewing powerpoint presentations from
within another application.

Regards

Ole Inselmann

you can host the PowerPoint-document on a Windows.Forms.Form by using IE:

or you can take an ActiveX-Control that hosts Office-documents and use
it through COM/interop.
