ppt generate power point report

[eliel]

Hello,

how could I generate a report in power point (ppt) in labview?

I do the analysis of some images and I can generate a report in Word (doc), but need to generate in ppt, I saw that on a make tools it provides the option of generating reports in excel and word.

I am using labview with vision module.

Thanks very much.

You'll most likely have to do this with ActiveX. This is similar to how it is done when writing to a real Excel file.

Translate http://support.microsoft.com/kb/222929 to LabVIEW.

Yes, we know what PowerPoint is. That doesn't mean one knows how to automate it. Microsoft provides an ActiveX interface for Microsoft applications so other programs can automate it. Thus, this is what you have to do. There is a chapter in the LabVIEW Help on how to use ActiveX. There are also examples that ship with LabVIEW that use ActiveX to automate Excel. Automating PowerPoint will follow the same approach. You can also read this: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/2983

Examples on automating PowerPoint have been posted before. Search the forum. You may also be able to find examples in the Community section. Again, search.

You may also want to consider using Word or Excel instead. Then you'd be able to use the Report Generation Toolkit from NI.
