Hello EV1,

I'm Starting a new Project in PPT and has to make a decision, weather
to use VBA or VB.Net
I have a good knowledge of .Net Architecture, and i was practicing
C#.Net in the past 6 months.

So, under those considurations - what should i do?

Thanx,
Gil.

Depends who it will be distributed to. Many users may not want or be able
to install the .net framework.

Gil,
My programming team is fluent in VB.Net and VBA and we could do a new
project for PPT in either. But we would definitely do it natively in
PPT using VBA unless we were running the presentation creation through
automation from a VB.Net application.
