hi
thanks for u'r reply.
But what i need is i have a button in my aspx page on click of that all the contents of that page should be dynamically exported to ppt and then i save it and view it as a presentation.

Hello sriram,

You might want to try creating a Custom Server control to actually create the HTML then you can save that HTML "text" output as an HTML file possibly. In this case, you can make good use of the Virtual Render(HtmlTextWriter) method of a Custom Server Control and so basicall you build your page programmatically and save the HTMLTextWriter Text in a ppt file. Or as an alternative, which would probably work is to create a new Utility-like webform, and have a function within the webform take advantage of the WebClient Class and use the GetData(URL) and this basically returns you back a string representation of the the Requested Page and you can then save this page as an HTML page, and then have your PPT Presentation call the created HTML page. The Syntax might not be fully correct as far as method names, but i know something like that does exist!

Hopefully this sheds some light!

Hello,

You may want to check out if there are any API's for the PowerPoint product; I cannot recall if there are or not. I figure there are because Word, Excel, and Acess have API's. Then you could use the API to create a slide with your data.

Hi Sriram,

I have done something similar to this couple of years ago. I just wrote a different component that connects to a ppt object and create the power point slides. When the user clicks on the export button, it will look like exporting the data to ppt.
You could also try setting the Response.ContentType to ppt. It didn't work out for me as I had to include lots of graphs.

I hope this will help you.

Hi,

I know this post is old, but I had a question concerning this thread. I need be able to upload a .ppt file, read the contents, and store each slide as an image on my web server using ASP. I know there is a third-party tool from aspose, but don't know if it would help my requirement. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I've been trying to do the same thing as sriram for a while, and have deemed it impossible several times now. While the ideas posted sound like they could work, I would need more details to actually implement them. Thanks,

PPT uses XML files (from and after Office 2003) so make use of it.
I did it in a project.

Hi Sriram,Shashank,

Will you please explain in detail, how to export pages to ppt in detail.

Thanks in advance
