SUMMARY

PowerPoint for Windows 95 version 7.0 ships with OLE Automation support capabilities. Like other Microsoft Office applications, PowerPoint has the ability to customize functionality to meet specific needs through Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications. The PowerPoint object model is exposed and documented in the Microsoft Software Development Kit (MSDK). In addition, a "Getting Started with PowerPoint and VBA" document is available on various online services, and on the World Wide Web. PowerPoint objects include presentations, slides, drawing objects, and builds.

PowerPoint for Windows 95 does not feature a programming interface; you cannot program directly from PowerPoint.
