PowerPoint Object Library

[Charlie]

I am using the PowerPoint Object Library with the following VB code:
Set oPPTApp = New PowerPoint.Application
oPPTApp.Visible = True
oPPTApp.WindowState = ppWindowMinimized
Set oPPTPres = oPPTApp.Presentations.Open(sPresentationFile)

How can I prevent PowerPoint to load? Or show in the taskbar?

Change those 4 lines to the following 2 lines:

Set oPPTApp = New PowerPoint.Application
Set oPPTPres = oPPTApp.Presentations.Open(sPresentationFile,
WithWindow:=False)

This will get you a reference to the presentation object without it showing
anywhere on the title bar.
