MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / July 2007PP VBA automation question
Hi, I'm working with an existing PP application and was wondering if anybody doing any VBA work knows whether the Access datbase engine is available to PP in version of Office that DO NOT include Access? Thanks!

Thanks! No, if you want Access it has to be installed.

I don't think (yet) that I can assume that.

Thanks! If you want to pull in data from an Access database, I don't think you need Access installed. Have a look here for one example that *might* work for you (I'm by no means a database wizard; trust your own senses, not mine <g>): Controlling Office Applications from PowerPoint (by Access MVP Naresh Nichani) http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00795.htm If you want to *automate* Access itself, then yes, it'd have to be there. ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ >> Hi, >> I'm working with an existing PP application and was wondering if [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > PPTools: www.pptools.com > ================================================ Thanks. Ironically, I was just there looking for something else. I was pretty sure I could READ access data, since you can read an mdb file with VB, frontpage, etc, even if you don't have access.
