Saving As Graphics files to SharePoint

Ben Hay

Hello

I am currently trying to save PowerPoint slides to SharePoint as graphics
files. However whenever I use the ActivePresentation.SaveAs or
ActivePresentation.Export I get the following error "PowerPoint Can't Save ^0
to ^1"

Any ideas?

If you attempted to this via PowerPoint UI it works.

Hello Steve

Thanks for the response. I am curenntly writing a save utility within
PowerPoint XP that saves to SharePoint document librarys using a list of
links provide by the user. I therefore present the user with a custom dialog
and all the file type's to save as. All the native types like ppt are
successful but the graphics types fail on the lines:

Application.DisplayAlerts = ppAlertsAll
ActivePresentation.SaveAs "http://server/personal/hayBen/TestDocs/New.gif",
ppSaveAsGIF

The error returned is "PowerPoint Can't Save ^0 to ^1". I then tried the to
change the code to use the export method with the following code:

ActivePresentation.Export "http://server/personal/hayBen/TestDocs/New.gif",
"gif"

and then

ActivePresentation.Export "http://server/personal/hayBen/TestDocs", "gif"

and then

ActivePresentation.Export "http://server/personal/hayBen/TestDocs/New", "gif"

Recieving the same error for each.

Hope this helps.

Regards

Ben Hay
