PowerPoint.Application not raising events in C#
- by AdmSteck
I have a simple application written in C# and .Net 2.0 that displays several PowerPoint 2003 files in a loop. (It is going to be used for a information board in our cafeteria) The application works fine on my development machine but when I deploy it to another machine the events I have registered for SlideShowNextSlide and PresentationClose are never fired. I have tried registering the events with this method.
private void InitPPT()
{
app.SlideShowNextSlide += new Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.EApplication_SlideShowNextSlideEventHandler(app_SlideShowNextSlide);
app.PresentationClose += new Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.EApplication_PresentationCloseEventHandler(app_PresentationClose);
app.SlideShowEnd += new Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.EApplication_SlideShowEndEventHandler(app_PresentationClose);
}
And with this method that I found here:
private void InitPPT()
{
IConnectionPointContainer oConnPointContainer = (IConnectionPointContainer)app;
Guid guid = typeof(Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.EApplication).GUID;
oConnPointContainer.FindConnectionPoint(ref guid, out m_oConnectionPoint);
m_oConnectionPoint.Advise(this, out m_Cookie);
}
Do I need to register some dll's on the client machine or am I missing something.
