Creating a macro to export Gantt view in MS PPT template

Microsoft Project >> Creating a macro to export Gantt view in MS PPT template What source info is out there to guide my efforts? I am not a developer.
Bottom line, we would take various pictures of project tasks and export to
slides in a MS PPT template?

Sydrae,
VBA code can certainly be written to do what you want but I am not aware
of any existing code in the public domain. It is possible that
somebody's has it (that's just a guess) but I haven't a clue as to where
you could search.

However there are other options. First, have you tried using the "Copy
Picture" (little camera icon on the Standard toolbar) utility? If you
only have a few task pictures to export, it might be all you need.

You might also want to take a look at the MVP website at:
http://www.mvps.org/project/faqs.htm
Look at FAQ 16 - Project Viewer
Some of the various options presented may provide a transition to
getting the Project graphic data into PowerPoint.

Another option is to write your own macro or have someone write it for
you. If you don't have VBA experience but would like to learn, take a
look at another MVP web link at:
http://www.mvps.org/project/links.htm
Go to the bottom of the page and look for "Project 98 Visual Basic
Environment Training Materials". Even though it says it is for Project
98, it is equally applicable to all current versions of Project. If you
are not interested in writing the code yourself, you could post a
request on microsoft.public.project.developer stating what you need.

Hope this helps.
