Delete a slide from a presentation in PPT

[phamh]

Hi,
How do I delete a slide from a PPT presentation?
This is how I add slide:
tempSlide = objPresentation.Slides;
newSlide = tempSlide.Add(tempSlide.count+1,2)
slideShape = newSlide.Shapes
aTable = slideShape.AddTable()



I tried this but it is not work
objPresentation.delete.Slide;

Please advise
Thanks

newSlide.Delete?

Did your code "tempSlide = objPresentation.Slides;" actually work? It really shouldn't nor should slideShape = newSlide.Shapes (assuming they are declared as Slides and Shapes.) Also you cannot add a table without specifying number of columns and rows can you?

Sorry, you are right. I did typed it in hurry. Here is my full codes to generate the slide and table. Since We use Coldfusion for front end. I need to code like below
<cfscript>
tempSlide = objPresentation.Slides;
newSlide = tempSlide.Add(tempSlide.Count+1, 12);
slideShape = newSlide.Shapes;
dummyTable = slideShape.AddTable(1,1,10,188,488,10);

</cfscript>
The systax is slightly different from the rest of the world.

When I writeDump(newSlide). I saw so many methods like AddRef, Release, etc. that applies to newSlide and one of them is Delete, then I code like this
newSlide.Delete to delete the newSlide, then I gave me error: simething like "The cause of this exception was that: AutomationException: 0x80020003 - Member not found"
Thank you for your time.

It is it:
