MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / June 2006How to get our online form saved in MS Powerpoint format
Urgent requirement We need to create a form online that once filled is generated as a MS PowerPoint (.ppt) file, any suggestions or leads will be highly appreciated. Newbie > Urgent requirement > > We need to create a form online that once filled is generated as a MS > PowerPoint (.ppt) file, any suggestions or leads will be highly appreciated. It will probably help if you supply a much more detailed description of what you need. You have a pretty good idea of what you need in your mind but the details aren't obvious to "outsiders" <g> What data will the form collect? How and where will it appear in the PPT file? What happens to the PPT file once it's created? ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ Purpose : Its for profile (resume) of the viewers- in all 14 slides The ppt files can remain in the server or can be sent to the designated person by email. Since we need to figure out how it can be done technically, other things depend on how it done in the first place.

Since you can't determine how it's done until you determine what "it" is in the first place, I'd still suggest that you define your needs a bit better. For example, given a web site running on IIS, it'd be fairly simple to convert form input into a text file that looks like: Firstname Lastname [tab]some data [tab]some data [tab]some data [tab]some data AnotherFirstname AnotherLastname [tab]some data [tab]some data [tab]some data [tab]some data and so on. That, saved a as text file, would open directly into PPT as a series of slides, each with a name as the title and the other data as bullet points. In fact, if you give it a PPT extension, when somebody doubleclicks it, it opens in PPT (using the default/blank template). More complex needs call for more complex solutions, obviously. > Newbie > [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > > PPTools: www.pptools.com > > ================================================ ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ Steve I highly appreciate your response and efforts to answer these issues. I have a detailed document about the content to be captured, not sure if this is appropriate to post all of that here. Is there a way I can mail you this document or I can provide my email ID.

I wouldn't be the guy to do the work; I was mostly trying to see what details were available so anyone interested could respond. Now that it's clear you have more detailed info available, let's see what turns up. You might want to post a munged email address in case someone wants to respond directly.
