Jessica, I think the developer was referring to OLE (Object Linking Embedding), which is how MS Office transports its objects between the different apps (word/excel/ppt).
It is not possible to export objects like this from flash as there is no real access to the file system, but you can link to swf files from within powerpoint (check http://www.flashgeek.com). -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jessica Mays Sent: 18 November 2005 21:05 To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: [Flashcoders] Exporting an image into powerpoint Is it possible to export an image from a swf and have it open within PowerPoint without a "save as"? Ex. I have a dynamically generated chart created in a swf. I push a button that exports the chart with that data and it opens with in PowerPoint or Word. The developer who was asking me if it was possible in Flash, I think he referred to it as an Oli-O, something to do with transferring an object into another app. Something they have not been able to do in their web app, but they were able to do when the application resided on the user's desktop.
