I am trying to figure out properties and how Powerpoint and ActiveX plugins communicate. I am having problems getting properties to show up inside Powerpoint, and am having a very difficult time finding documentation. I downloaded a sample (control123) from the web, and tried to add a new string property "TestString" and it doesn't show up in Powerpoint. (see attached project). Do you know what's wrong? I did exactly what the MS documentation online says to use the "Add Property Wizard" (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/khbc069h.aspx) I am using Office 2010 and Visual Studio 2010.
My sample project is at: http://www.blainebell.org/contral123.tar
Thanks for your help.
