Hi Harendra,

I don't think that ppt (PowerPoint) is a valid export file type for a Crystal Report.

You could possibly export the report to excel and then add the excel link into PowerPoint:

Run the Crystal Report
Export the report to Microsoft Excel
In Microsoft Excel, select the range of cells you want to link, and then click Copy.
Switch to Microsoft PowerPoint, and then click the slide or notes page where you want to insert the linked copy of worksheet cells.
On the Edit menu, click Paste Special.
Click Paste link.

Cheers,

Steve

If you are looking to get it done through code without using the Crystal Viewer to export then you might want to explore generating the report in PDF and then using another tool to convert from PDF to PPT.

There are samples in these forums to generate the PDF, have not tried any of the PDF to PPT utilities but I see several on google.
