    userform between excel and powerpoint

    Hi,

    I was wondering if i can get some help here with powerpoint. I realise that i should not come here to ask this question in the excel forum but i have no idea where to seek help.

    I have a business card done in PowerPoint (previously done by someone else). The layout or size of a business card is based on Avery 8 x business card in a sheet. What I would like to do is to be able to create a userform for users to enter first name, last name, mobile phone and email address. And when users press OK button, all data will be placed onto the business cards.

    Initially, I thought it was just as easy as word or excel but after spending an hour trying to get my userform to pop up, this is just difficult to set up.

    I wonder if there are any other way that i can use excel to allow user to enter some data which can be then dumped onto the business card in powerpoint.

    Any ideas are welcome. Thank you in advance

    Why use PowerPoint for designing a business card? I would have thought that the obvious choices would be Publisher, Word or even Excel
    Hope that helps.

    Thanks RoyUK for your reply.

    Yes, that is what I thought too. Sorry this was done ages ago by someone before me.

    But i can understand why they use the powerpoint to design the business card.

    This is what it looks like roughly on the card

    I tried to find this kind of design from the word or publisher but to no avail.

    Thank you in advance
