With DataPoint, you can add new features to Microsoft PowerPoint for creating data-driven presentations. This lets you update content automatically when you open the presentation and even while the slideshow is running. With PowerPoint and DataPoint together, you can set up an information screen or message board that displays messages, news, or announcements, and even update the content remotely.
Microsoft Access is mainly used for databases. You can easily create a new database, design its structure, add data, and set up queries to filter or join multiple tables. You can also enter data through forms. To use this database in your presentation, save it on a file server, then connect DataPoint to read the data for your slides.
