All,
I'm working on a project that creates dynamic Powerpoint presentations
(using vba or vbscript)
I start with a Powerpoint "template" that has a number of text shapes - I
can programatically add/modify the text in these shapes in vba.
However, I'd like to know if it's possible to use HTML markup like this:
oSlide.Shapes("someShape").TextFrame.TextRange.Text = "This is some
<b>bold</b> text"
I'd like to be able to use bold, italics, superscripts, and bullet lists, if
possible.
If this is not possible using HTML, is there some other way to create
dynamic text with some Rich-text formatting?
I know that it's possible to format individiual characters thus:
oSlide.Shapes("someText").TextFrame.TextRange.Characters(x, y)...
But I'll be receiving text from a database that includes the markup, and I'd
like to just be able to put it in the text frames without formatting it
character by character.
Any help or insights would be much appreciated!
Cheers to all!
