Hello,

Has anyone had any experience converting Microsoft Access to Powerpoint?

This would include being able to enter data into the Powerpoint screen form and then have Powerpoint enter the data into another data form.

I am trying to get an idea how complicated it would be.

Thank you.

You cannot "convert" Access to Powerpoint.

I think I understand what you are trying to do.

Your best bet would be to embed a hyperlink for your Access application in the required Powerpoint slide. When you get to the point in your presentation where you need to enter data, you click on the link, which would open the Access application.

Hope this helps.

Powerpoint won't submit data to other forms (from what I know). I use PP quite extensively in my industry (music artist management/promotions).
I'll stay posted here incase of ansers to the contrary.

looks like you need to write some code.
