"the PPT slide pull the data from the server when it is opened"
Now that is a possibility. Client insists it be a ppt file, and that it be served from the server (it must not be necessary that the user already have the file), but, whether the data is inserted on the server, or atumoatically from the server once downloaded and opened is immaterial.
I'm not an MS Office buff. I'm somewhat familiar with linking objects in other Office apps, but from the server? On top of that, it has to be linked to a Perl script because teg data is being generated on the fly. | [reply] |
Here you go.
If you go here PowerPoint Slide
you will have a slide that has directions on how to update the data from
this web
page.
So in this example you write a Perl script that generates your data
on a web page dynamicly. Then have a file simular to this
one pull the data and update your file.
I did not go into too much details on how to do this. Bad day and all, but
if you think that you would want to try this I
can give you some tips.
Updated links which changed due to changes on my website.
