First let me start by saying thank you for your time and effort to help me solve this problem.
The attached excel workbook builds a power point (3 slides), inserts a text box into slide 1 with text from the excel and inserts a picture (.jpg) into slide 2. Everything works except after the picture inserts a 'Type Mismatch' run time error triggers. The line of code that errors was generated by the macro generator in powerpoint but using it in Excel VBA fails (I have the PowerPoint reference switched on). Here is a snipped of the code so you don't have to open the workbook but the workbook does a better job of showing the problem. The 3rd line from the bottom up triggers the runtime error 'Run-time error 13, Type Mismatch'. I checked the path and filename like crazy, I don't think that's the problem. Thanks again for your help.
