RSS feeds in Powerpoint
 
Anyone got any idea how to get an RSS feed to update and show in a powerpoint presentation (without 3rd party software) - could it be done via vba (or whatever it's called now)

Re: RSS feeds in Powerpoint
 
RSS Feeds are just XML files, so VBA can do it apparently:

Some links here:

* MSXML - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...42(VS.85).aspx
