    Add VBA Reference From Another Application Excel To PowerPoint

    I have no problem setting up references from one workbook to another. calling workbook references my class variables in called workbook. I want to do the same thing from a powerpoint file (ie reference my class variables from the called workbook). The class variables are not the excel objects but classes that i have defined for my own application. Is this possible? I tried using the tools>references function in VBE that i used for the workbook to workbook references in powerpoint but the excel workbook does not show up in the references list from powerpoint. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    ds1001, I am not sure about 2013, but up till 2010, you cannot add the reference of one application file to the VBA project of another application file, for example you cannot add a macro enabled excel file or even an add-in excel file on to the VBA project of a PowerPoint presentation.
    A dream is not something you see when you are asleep, but something you strive for when you are awake.

    It's usually a bad idea to say that something can't be done.

    The difference between dream and aim, is that one requires soundless sleep to see and the other requires sleepless efforts to achieve
