Hi there. I'm trying to link a powerpoint application with an Access mdb so
that my powerpoint can query the data in the database and display them on a
powerpoint slide.

I have fairly good knowledge of ASP that I have been developing many
websited with. So with that ASP based logic in mind, I have tried to call the
database with VB macro in the powerpoint but it wasn't quite easy for me.

I'd appreciate if anyone could give me a handful guide for this task.
