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).

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.
Thanks for your help
Jessica
