Text box value into Powerpoint presentation

[Gill1978]

Hi,

I have a web application that merge's powerpoint presentations into one new file which is saved to the Network. I'm using interopt to do this ...

However I need to copy text box values from the web page into th first slide of the new presentation. Does anyone know how to go about doing this ???

Thanks

Julie

I've got the following however its causing an error on this line (stating that the new keyword is needed) but I can't see where:

objSlide = ppPres.Slides.Add(1, Powerpoint.PpSlideLayout.ppLayoutBlank);

Full add new slide code:

        Powerpoint._Slide objSlide;
        Powerpoint.TextRange objTextRng = null;
        //ppApp.PresentationNewSlide
        objSlide = ppPres.Slides.Add(1, Powerpoint.PpSlideLayout.ppLayoutBlank);
        //objSlide = ppSlides.Add(1, Powerpoint.PpSlideLayout.ppLayoutText);
        objTextRng = objSlide.Shapes[1].TextFrame.TextRange;
        objTextRng.Text = "My Presentation";

I haven't worked with creating PPT/xls or docs this way. but usually .net objects work like this

Powerpoint._Slide objSlide = new Powerpoint.PpSlideLayout.ppLayoutBlank();
ppSlides.Add(1, objSlide);

Powerpoint.TextRange objTextRng = objSlide.Shapes[1].TextFrame.TextRange;
objTextRng.Text = "My Presentation";
