Is there a reasonably simple and elegant way of exporting a 3 page
report to Powerpoint? I've looked at the Stephen Lebans method of
exporting the pages to separate images and then importing them into
the Powerpoint presentation, but I would like something that is more
automated and less confusing for the user if possible.

What I'm looking for is code that can be allocated to a Menu Bar or
Ribbon button that can be clicked when the report is being displayed
on screen, Powerpoint will open and the 3 report pages will appear in
3 Powerpoint slides. Is this possible or am I asking too much?

This is obviously not straightforward which is rather perplexing given
that we are talking about 2 Office applications.

Maybe it isn't a common task or request.

You might have to google a bit to find some solutions.

Thanks for the links Salad. I'd Googled but had only found a couple of
these links. I'll trawl through the others that you've supplied.
