Video: Building Presentations from SharePoint Site Content
First sorry for the long time away from posting. It was quite a busy fourth quarter. But welcome to 2008!
I put together a quick video blog of two demonstrations I show about how to automate the creation of PowerPoint presentations based on SharePoint site content. The first part of the demo shows how a Visual Studio Tools for Office add-in for PowerPoint can call SharePoint's web services to retrieve content and build slides. The second approach shows how this can be done completely server side by manipulating the new Open XML formatted files. Both demos usually get people excited; I hope you enjoy them. The code for these is available on Apress' web site since they are from my book: Pro SharePoint Solution Development. This book is mentioned a lot in the blog so it should be easy to find more info if you are interested. Sorry for the background noise in the video. The HVAC system here is running full strength on this cold day.
Also, I will be presenting at the upcoming SharePoint conference in Seattle in March. My topic will be "Enforce Governance by Provisioning Sites through Workflows" or something like that. Stop by and say hi. I may have a few books to hand out. https://www.mssharepointconference.com/Pages/default.aspx
Just an update: Ian at wssdemo.com has hosted this video on a streaming server which has much better quality: https://xpstream.winisp.net/imorrish/generate_ppt_sharepoint.wmv
