   Yeah ... I want to control powerpoint with Excel, drawing slides using   
   powerpoint.   
      
   I've got the graphics happening in Excel, but I want them on slides.   
      
   Now I have a different problem, which (I'm sorry I have nowhere else to   
   turn) is as follows.   
      
   I include the powerpoint class libraries, and they have their own shape   
   libraries, which are exactly the same except they draw on a slide. However,   
   I now have two subtly different classes, both called "shape". When I key in   
      
   Dim abc As Shape   
      
   I get two choices for "Shape", and I seem to have no idea which class I have   
   created. Is there some way to force it to use the class I want?
