Using PowerPoint to Call Excel?

S

I would like to have my PowerPoint presentation be able to start Excel and
run a macro on it. I would like for this to occur after a certain slide has
been reached. Is this possible?

Another approach from the excellent approach that Steve mentioned
would be to use a button on a given slide to open the Excel file and
name the Excel macro Auto_Open

e.g.

Option Explicit

Sub Auto_Open()
MsgBox "I' open."
End Sub

This will fire the macro when the worbook opens.
