Open Linked application in Power Point

[Gary]

I need some help here. I hope someone could help.

1) When I double click the linked or embed application in power point, it
is open in-place. Not a separate window is used. Is there a means of
expanding this open embeded application to full screen?? I would like to do
this in VBA code.

2) I noticed that I can manually drag the in-place window to a larger size.
Can I maximize this or enlarge it by using VBA code and How??

3) If I was using embed VBA Code in the power point, Can I have the VBA
code located somewhere else, such that it is referenced??? The reason is
that I am using VBA Code to generate the power point currently. I don't know
how to embed VBA code into the application by using VBA Code. Can someone
help??

4) When I open the embed application by using Edit -> Visio -> Open, it
open the embed Visio application in its own window. If I can't get the
in-placed open window to full screen, the separate window does get
full-screen. The problem is getting the application to open in its separate
window by double clicking. The double clicking opens it in-place and not in
a separate window. How can I change that such that double clicking the
application will open in a separate window.

I really need some help here!!

Thank You,

G

Simmom, are you sure that is embedding? Have you trial run it?

camxaxle, i am sorry to tell you that it is not embeded. The PowerPoint just
build a link between them. I am sorry that I didn't note the word "embeded"
and it 's a pity that my idea could not be help!

Gary, to insert an application into PowerPoint, you can follow the steps show
below:
1.Click on "Slide Show," then "Action Buttons."
2.Choose the "blank" button.
3.Drag a box in the lower-right corner of your slide. In the dialog box that
pops up, check Run Program and browse to the aplication you want to be
embeded.
4.Click OK.
The button you created will link this slide show to the aplication. then you
can do things like change the appearance of the button.

Thank you for noticing the embed application.

Your responds for item #1, where should this code be placed??

Looks like you are setting VERB = 2 which causes it to open it is own screen.

It looks like you are using the activewindow and making the shade have a
verb=2.

I am still not sure where to to the code at??? Its not like access where
there is an OnOpen event, or the ability to preset a form to have Verb =2.

On Item #3, you are correct on your assumption. I was think that if I can
detect the fact that an OnOpen event occur, then act. But you right, the new
power point will not have any code in it because I generated using VBA code
from Access, OLE with Power Point and Visio. So you think its my be only
possible to have a button to load the Add-in?? What is an Add-in (It sounds
like code some where). I may work.


Thank You,
