Michael, You can try to bring a MapInfo object directly into PowerPoint by going to: Insert menu>Object; in the pop up window (insert object) click on "Create new" radio button, choose MapInfo map from the "Object type" list. Click ok and you should be able to open MapInfo tab files from inside PowerPoint. Have fun!

I've done the usual by saving the map as a jpg, etc. but I know that you can bring a map into PowerPoint and manipulate the map features individually. Somewhere along the way, the map goes through some kind of magic so that each feature becomes an object. but how. I'm going crazy; I know I've seen it done before.
